About Laura

Laura Saggers is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing relationship problems, stress, anxiety and life changes. She has four years of professional experience and holds a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, a Bachelor of Arts with Honours, and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education. Laura is registered with the NCPS, the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society.

In sessions she offers a warm, non-judgemental space to talk through difficult feelings. She adapts her style to the person in front of her rather than using one set approach for everyone. That means conversations can include practical thinking tools, reflective exploration of past patterns, or work on how everyday thoughts and habits influence mood.

Her practice includes support for relationship and intimacy issues, parenting and blended family concerns, and problems with self-esteem, anger or depression. She also addresses caregiving stress, compassion fatigue, eating and body image struggles, and responses after trauma or separation.

Laura uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, together with person-centred and psychodynamic ideas, to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try new patterns. Sessions can look at communication, commitment worries, attachment and abandonment themes, or how work and career pressures affect wellbeing.

She offers counselling by telephone and video. Laura takes supervision and ongoing professional development seriously to keep her practice current. If someone wants to begin, they can complete the site’s matching questionnaire and arrange a session based on the therapist’s schedule.

How CBT and reflective work translate to online therapy

Laura uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and everyday habits. CBT sessions often focus on practical exercises, spotting thinking patterns, and trying small behavioural experiments to ease anxiety, low mood or stress.

She also draws on person-centred and psychodynamic ideas to understand how past experiences shape current relationships and feelings. This adds space to reflect on attachment, abandonment concerns, and communication problems alongside practical change work.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and adapt techniques accordingly. That way the work matches what feels most useful, whether that is short-term skill building or longer reflective work.

Laura offers telephone and video counselling; please confirm the precise session options when you book. Online sessions can fit around work, childcare and travel more easily and allow for shorter check-ins or longer therapy blocks as needed. They also remove travel time and can make it simpler to continue therapy while living abroad or on the move.
