The Bodhi Tree

Counselling & Psychotherapy

Welcome! I’m Laura.

I work with Adults 18+

*Online therapy at a subsidised fee*

I am a Neurodivergent Practitioner with a lot of Empathy!

My special areas are neurodivergence, Trauma Informed working with unprocessed childhood trauma - healing the inner child, and anxiety. I welcome everyone, from all walks of life and experiences. I hold a love of difference and diversity and I am a neuro-affirming, inclusive practitioner who sees you for who you are. Why should anyone have to fit into a box that is not built for us? I would love for you to embrace your authentic self and shine in a safe place with me.

I have diverse experience of other areas but not limited to; grief and loss/bereavement, Long term illness, burnout, self esteem and confidence issues and work around the central nervous system and regulation.

Being a humanistic and integrative therapist has emphasis on the fact you are responsible for yourself, your choices and how you navigate your life, with the aim of being your best, most authentic version of yourself to achieve your full potential in life, goals and relationships. We do this together, bringing awareness into the conscious and allowing space for growth.

My therapy space is a space for you to be your true self without judgement so you can heal and grow freely and authentically. This is your space to be seen, heard and validated, while you explore in the safety of our space together In confidence.

I offer a free 30 minute consultation either via phone or video call to discuss your needs and to see if you feel comfortable before embarking on your therapeutic journey with me. The most important thing is feeling safe and comfortable with the therapist you choose, after all, you are sharing your inner and outer world and feeling safe and secure is a massive deal in therapy.

"When the other person is hurting, confused, troubled, anxious, alienated, terrified; or when he or she is doubtful of self-worth, uncertain as to identity - then understanding is called for. The gentle and sensitive companionship offered by an empathic person provides illumination and healing. In such situations, deep understanding is, I believe, the most precious gift one can give to another" Rogers.

How I Can Help You

As a Humanistic and Integrative Counsellor, I draw on different therapeutic approaches to suit you. I work in a trauma informed, compassionate way, paying attention to how past experiences, relationships and the body can shape how we feel today.

Clients often describe my style as warm, empathic, grounded and relatable. You don't need to have the right words or a clear goal, we work things out together in the safety of my therapy room, where I invite you to be you, express yourself and even swear...yes I said it, swearing is welcome! I’m fully qualified (BSc Hons) and registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which means I adhere to high professional standards and ethical guidelines.

Whether you're dealing with anxiety, relationship struggles, or unresolved trauma, I’m here to help guide you through the process of healing at your own pace.

How We’ll Work Together

I offer online sessions exclusively via Doxy.me or telephone This allows us to connect from the comfort of your own space with no need to travel. I also offer Face to Face sessions at Nottingham Counselling Service.

I also provide a free initial 15-minute consultation, where we can chat about your needs and see if we’re a good fit to work together.

Any questions you have during initial consultation will be answered so you feel comfortable with the process.

Your first step into self discovery, healing and personal growth can be anxiety provoking, so a big praise from me if you have reached my page, read it and even contemplated contacting me! You have got this! 🙂
