About Laura

Laura Hine uses an attachment-informed and person-centred approach to help people untangle patterns that hold them back. She puts relationship and early experience at the centre of therapy, while also drawing on practical techniques to relieve anxiety and low mood. Laura is based in the United Kingdom and works in English.

People come to Laura when they feel stuck, overwhelmed or unable to shift repetitive thoughts and behaviours. She can help when anxiety, depression, trauma or difficulties with intimacy make daily life harder. She also supports people dealing with grief, addiction, parenting strain and career uncertainty.

Her background includes work with an agency that specialises in domestic and sexual abuse and trauma. She has supported young people with special needs and emotional difficulties for the Priory Group. These roles have informed her approach to complex trauma and relational problems.

Laura blends person-centred listening with psychodynamic and narrative ideas. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) tools when practical strategies are needed. This mix lets her adapt sessions to what each person finds most helpful.

She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and has around seven years of professional experience. Laura keeps up with additional training, especially in trauma-related therapies, to refine her clinical skills. If codependency, attachment worries or repeated relationship patterns are a concern, she helps people name those patterns and work through them.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can be used to notice how people relate in the moment and to practise new ways of connecting. Client-centred therapy emphasises empathic listening and acceptance, giving people space to tell their story and find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers straightforward tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and can be used to build coping skills between sessions.

Finding the right approach usually happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, past experiences and what feels usable to the client. This collaborative process helps decide whether relational exploration, narrative work or practical CBT techniques are most helpful at a given time.

Confirm the exact online session options before booking, as the biography does not specify formats here. Many people find remote counselling easier to fit around work and family life, reduces travel, and can allow shorter check-ins when needed. Others like being able to use practical exercises and worksheets during a session. A discussion at the first appointment will clarify how to make online work well for everyday schedules and therapeutic aims.
