Laura Carroll , BACP

Laura Carroll is a United Kingdom based therapist with three years of professional experience, working with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties and a wide range of related concerns including self-esteem, LGBT issues, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related problems, parenting challenges, career stress, depression, coping with life changes and ADHD. Her practice focuses on practical, person-focused support that helps clients identify patterns, build on strengths and navigate difficult transitions.

She approaches each person as the expert of their own story, helping them to recognise existing resources and develop new strategies for change. Laura combines attentive listening with reflective questioning to create a space where clients can explore emotions, improve relationships and work toward clearer priorities and healthier coping.

Laura is credentialed with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which is the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK. She aims to make the first steps toward therapy as manageable as possible and acknowledges the courage it takes to begin this work.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Laura Carroll draws on Client-Centered Therapy, an approach that focuses on understanding each person's experience from their perspective and building on their inherent strengths. This method emphasizes empathy, active listening and collaboration, and can be particularly helpful for issues like self-esteem, relationship concerns and navigating life changes. She also uses Psychodynamic Therapy, which explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence current feelings and behaviours; this approach can support work with trauma, grief, intimacy issues and recurring relational patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Laura works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. She tailors sessions over time, combining elements from different approaches when that best supports progress and personal insight.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and comfort levels. For many people, these options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, balance therapy with work or family commitments, and access licensed professionals from their own location while working toward meaningful change.
