Hello, I’m Laura, a relational and integrative EMDR practitioner with a passion for supporting individuals, couples, children, and families as they navigate life’s challenges. I offer a warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where you can feel safe to explore what’s going on for you and move towards healing and growth.

​

Who I work with

 

 

Children & Young People (Ages 8+)

 

I offer both play therapy and talking therapy for children and teenagers, supporting them with emotional, behavioural, and relational difficulties in a developmentally appropriate and gentle way.

 

Specialist Couples Therapy 

 

My couples sessions provide a safe, balanced space for both partners to explore relationship difficulties. Together, we work on improving communication, understanding patterns, rebuilding connection, and navigating challenges with greater awareness and empathy. I can also support two adults looking for relational support, this can be a friendship or adult siblings.

 

Individual Therapy

 

I support adults experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-worth, trauma, and emotional overwhelm. I have a particular interest in inner child work and childhood trauma recovery, helping clients understand how early experiences continue to shape present-day thoughts, feelings, and relationships.

​

EMDR Trauma Therapy

​

I am qualified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing), an evidence-based therapy recommended for trauma and PTSD. EMDR helps the brain reprocess distressing or traumatic memories that may feel “stuck,” reducing their emotional intensity and impact on daily life. Many clients find EMDR helpful for trauma, childhood experiences, abuse, accidents, and other overwhelming life events, especially when talking alone feels too difficult.

​

My Approach

 

As an integrative counsellor, I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches and tailor my work to meet your individual needs. My relational approach focuses on helping you understand the relationships you have with yourself and others, and how these influence your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours.

 

Together, we explore how past and present experiences may be affecting you today, supporting you to develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and healthier ways of relating.

 

If you have any questions or would like to book a session, please feel free to get in touch at koodle.counselling@gmail.com. I look forward to hearing from you and supporting you on your journey.
