About Laura
Laura Adams is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with four years of professional practice. She draws on earlier experience supporting people in a range of settings. Laura focuses on everyday problems such as stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties. She also helps with self-esteem, motivation and coping with life changes.
She uses a psychodynamic model in one-to-one live sessions. That approach looks at patterns in feelings and relationships and how past experiences shape present difficulties. Sessions typically use video or audio so the work can fit into busy schedules.
Laura aims to create space for people to tell their story and to identify strengths they already have. She pays attention to how people connect with others and with themselves, and how those connections affect day-to-day life. The goal is to make sense of repeating patterns and find ways to make different choices.
Her practice also addresses concerns such as abandonment and attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication problems and control issues. She offers support around divorce and separation, guilt and shame, forgiveness, impulsivity and isolation.
Clients who want to explore life purpose, midlife transitions or men’s issues are also within her areas of focus. Sessions are conducted in English and Laura accepts international clients, with scheduling arranged according to availability.
How psychodynamic work translates to online therapy
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on understanding recurring feelings and relationship patterns. It pays attention to how past experiences influence present thoughts and reactions, which can help with anxiety, low mood and relationship difficulties.Another useful strand in this context is reflective listening, where the therapist mirrors what someone says to help them notice patterns and emotions they might not have seen before. That technique supports clearer thinking and small changes in how people respond to stress.
Finding the right therapeutic way of working is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about what feels most useful and adapt the approach as the work unfolds. Decisions about whether to focus on immediate coping or longer-standing themes are made together.
Sessions are offered as live video or audio meetings according to the biography, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Online sessions can reduce travel time, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and be scheduled around work or caregiving commitments. Confirm the current session options when booking to match format and timing to individual needs.
