Laura Hine , BACP, NCPS

Laura Hine is an integrative psychotherapist and traumatologist who supports people feeling stuck by helping them move beyond unhelpful thoughts and behaviour patterns. She works with a wide range of difficulties including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, addictions, grief, and challenges around self-esteem, intimacy and parenting. Laura also supports people facing complex presentations such as attachment and abandonment issues, neurodiversity-related needs, personality-related difficulties, and co-morbid conditions, adapting her approach to the individual needs and goals of each person.

Drawing on an integrative framework, Laura blends person-centred, psychodynamic and relational ideas with a trauma and attachment focus. She uses evidence-informed trauma therapies alongside developmental and relational theory so her work can be tailored to what will be most helpful for each client. She maintains professional development through regular additional training to refine her clinical skills.

Laura has seven years of professional experience and holds credentials with BACP and NCPS, professional recognitions that indicate standing with established counselling and psychotherapy bodies. Alongside private practice, she has experience working with an agency that specialises in domestic and sexual abuse and trauma, and she has worked with young people with special needs and emotional difficulties for the Priory Group. Her practice aims to provide compassionate, skilled support to help people manage life changes and move forward.

Therapeutic approaches and accessible online support

Laura often draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her online practice. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people improve connection and security in relationships. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a non-directive, empathic relationship where the therapist offers acceptance and understanding to help clients discover their own solutions. CBT is a structured approach that looks at how thoughts, emotions and behaviours interact, offering practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Laura works collaboratively with each person to identify what fits best with their needs, goals and preferences. Together they review progress and adjust methods so therapy remains responsive and useful.

Online therapy with Laura is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility for different lifestyles and needs. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals without geographic constraints, helping people engage with therapy in ways that suit their schedules and comfort levels.
