About Laura
Laura Disley is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has around 10 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family concerns, grief and loss, depression, addictions, parenting pressures and related issues. Sessions are presented in everyday language and focus on practical steps clients can use at home and in daily life.
She adopts a client-centred stance, treating the person as the expert on their own life while offering reflective feedback. Mindfulness and solution-focused ideas are often used to help people manage intense feelings and to make small, steady changes. Motivational interviewing is sometimes part of the work when clients want to change habits or behaviour.
Laura aims to help people talk through what feels stuck and to notice what is already working. She listens for strengths and practical options people can try between sessions. Conversations tend to be straightforward and paced to the client’s comfort, with simple homework or short experiments when helpful.
Her background includes a decade of practice supporting adults through loss, trauma, parenting strain and major life changes. That experience shapes a relaxed, problem-solving approach rather than a one-size-fits-all programme. She will work with a client's goals and adjust methods as needs evolve.
Sessions are conducted in English and Laura accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling details through the service's booking tools.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the adult's experience at the centre of the work. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps the client clarify goals. This approach can help with feeling overwhelmed, relationship worries and parenting stress by making choices clearer.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These exercises are practical for anxiety, sleeping difficulties and emotional ups and downs and can be practised between sessions.
Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, achievable changes that make daily life easier. It is action-orientated and useful for people who want quick ways to test what helps at home or at work.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and will try ways of working that fit the person's needs. This choice is made together, and methods can change as progress is reviewed.
