About Laura
Laura Spagnuolo is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy difficulties, trauma and abuse, and sleep problems. She works with individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. Laura is a member of the BACP, which denotes her professional registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
She offers a calm, listening approach that aims to make sense of what is getting in the way of everyday life. Sessions focus on the client’s story and on understanding patterns that repeat in work and relationships. The aim is to help people notice choices they can make and to build small, workable changes.
Laura draws on humanistic and psychodynamic influences while adapting the work to each person’s culture, values and beliefs. She pays attention to early life experiences and how these shape current ways of relating. This can bring clarity about behaviours that are helpful and those that may be holding someone back.
Her style is collaborative and gentle. She listens with empathy and seeks to create a respectful, non-judgemental space. Over time the work aims to support increased self-awareness, reduced reactivity, and more satisfying relationships.
Clients can expect to reflect on emotions, explore relationship patterns, and work on practical steps that support better rest and daily coping. Laura also addresses related concerns such as body image, eating and caregiver stress as they come up in sessions.
How Laura’s approaches shape online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current ways of connecting with others. It can help people who notice repeating patterns in close relationships or who struggle with trust and emotional closeness. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. It emphasises empathy and the client’s own ability to find meaning and solutions, which suits concerns like low self-esteem or life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laura will discuss which methods feel most helpful and adapt the style as the client’s needs and goals become clearer. This is a collaborative process where the therapist and client check in and adjust how they work together.
Online therapy can make fitting counselling into a busy life easier, for example by reducing travel time and letting sessions happen from different locations. It can also allow shorter check-ins if that suits someone’s schedule, or sessions in the client’s preferred language when this is important. Because the exact session formats are not specified here, clients should confirm available options before booking to make sure they suit practical needs and routines.
