Laura McAuliffe , BACP

Laura McAuliffe is a qualified integrative counsellor who brings nine years of experience supporting adults through a wide range of life challenges. As an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) she follows recognised professional and ethical standards in her practice, combining different therapeutic methods to suit each person she works with.

She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, panic attacks, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family problems, bereavement and grief, and major life changes such as becoming a parent. Additional areas of focus include experiences of abandonment, attachment difficulties, feelings of emptiness, family conflict, and issues around guilt and shame. Her integrative approach means she adapts evidence-based techniques to each client rather than applying a single fixed method.

Central to her work is building a trusting professional relationship marked by respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She recognises that taking the first step toward a more satisfying and happier life takes courage, and she aims to offer steady support throughout the therapeutic process.

Integrative approaches and accessible online care

Laura McAuliffe works from an integrative counselling perspective, blending different evidence-based techniques to fit each individual's needs. This approach allows her to draw on a range of therapeutic tools so that sessions can focus on what helps most - whether someone is coping with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or life transitions.

She also applies targeted, evidence-informed work that addresses attachment-related concerns and grief. This type of focused work explores patterns in relationships and the emotional impacts of loss, offering practical ways to build emotional resilience and healthier connections.

Finding the right therapeutic route is a collaborative process. Laura will work with each person to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods as therapy progresses to ensure the best fit.

Online therapy provides practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone and options for live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These formats allow licensed professionals to offer regular, ongoing support across different settings, helping people access care that matches their schedule and needs.
