About Laura
Laura Hine is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS in the United Kingdom, with seven years of professional experience. She works with people who feel stuck - overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strains or the pressure of life changes. She also supports those dealing with addiction, grief, career uncertainty and issues around self-esteem and intimacy.
She uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs, drawing on attachment-focused work, client-centred listening and cognitive methods. Sessions are practical and conversational, with attention to how early relationships and life events shape current feelings. Laura pays particular attention to trauma and attachment issues when these are relevant.
Her background includes work with an agency that supports people affected by domestic and sexual abuse. She has also worked with young people with additional needs and emotional difficulties for the Priory Group. These roles have informed her approach to serious trauma and complex distress.
In sessions she combines exploration of personal history with straightforward strategies to manage distress. That can mean looking at unhelpful thinking patterns, trying new ways of communicating, or making small changes that reduce overwhelm. The focus is on clear steps people can try between sessions.
People who contact her typically want help with relationships, anxiety, career and identity pressures, or recovery after abuse or other losses. Laura keeps up to date with extra training and applies a range of therapeutic ideas to the problems people bring.
Practical next steps are simple: complete the short matching questionnaire, then book an initial appointment to discuss goals and plan how to work together.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns from early relationships and how they affect current connections. Online sessions can use this approach to look at relationship dynamics and to practise different ways of relating during conversations. Client-centred therapy emphasises being heard and understood; the therapist follows the client’s pace and helps people make sense of their feelings in their own words. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviours with clear strategies and tasks to try between sessions.Finding the most useful approach is part of the process. Laura will work collaboratively to decide which methods to use based on a person’s goals, their situation and what feels most helpful. That conversation usually happens in the first few appointments and can be reviewed as work progresses.
The practical benefits of online sessions include easier fitting of appointments into study and work schedules, lower travel time and flexibility around different time zones. If you want to arrange sessions from another country, confirm the available formats and scheduling when you book.
