Laura Daniels

Laura Daniels works using a client-centred approach. She focuses on helping people understand themselves and find what actually helps them day to day.

She has seven years' experience supporting people with stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with relationship concerns, bereavement, work-related stress and changes in life direction. Her style is warm and non-judgemental and aimed at practical steps toward goals.

In sessions she uses reflective listening and gentle challenge. She talks through attachment styles, birth order and self-care to help people see patterns in their relationships and behaviours. This can make it easier to pick useful changes to try between meetings.

She also works with issues such as abandonment, codependency, communication problems and body image. Isolation and loneliness are included among her focus areas and she helps people find ways to reconnect and cope with emptiness.

Her way of working combines supportive, nurturing presence with focused, solution-oriented conversation. People who come to her often want clearer thinking, steadier mood and better ways to manage daily pressures. To start, she invites a short conversation to clarify goals and next steps.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening carefully and following the person's lead. The counsellor offers empathy, acceptance and reflections that help people make sense of their feelings and choices. This approach is useful for issues like anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and loneliness because it helps people feel understood and more able to consider small changes.

She also works in a solution-focused way, which involves setting short-term goals and trying practical steps between sessions. That approach suits people who want clear, actionable ideas to manage stress, work pressures or the sense of emptiness that can come with isolation.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide what feels most helpful, drawing on client-centred listening and brief, goal-oriented techniques where appropriate. The focus is on what the person needs, their goals and their preferences rather than a fixed method.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow sessions from different locations. It also means shorter check-ins or flexible scheduling to suit work breaks or other commitments.
