Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Hello! I’m Laura a Person Centred Counsellor.
Thank you for taking the time to learn a little more about me.
As a person centred counsellor, my focus during sessions is on you and your needs. This purely means sessions will be directed by yourself and we will focus on the topics in which you bring up. I will not direct you to discuss anything you do not yet feel comfortable doing.
In some cases, a client may want to be more solution focused and directive, please let me know if this would suit your needs better as I also have experience with Solution Focus Therapy and can provide this.
I am based in the UK and have completed a level 7 BACP accredited course here. This has allowed me to now be a registered member of the BACP (#00948037).
I have experience working with a wide range of clients, within multiple different settings, remotely and in person.
I work with individuals, couples/relationships and families. Sometimes working with parents to enable them to better support their child/ren.
I continue to work with a magnitude of presenting issues, from suicidal thoughts, self-harm, abuse, assault, domestic violence to low self-esteem, anxiety, sexuality, gender questioning, communication, confidence, work/job/life satisfaction and lack of motivation.
I have experience working with those with Neurodiversities such as ADHD, Autism and other such diagnosis.
I am confident I will be able to work with any issue you bring, in a safe and confidential space, without judgement.
It is important you feel comfortable with your therapist and if there are any conflicts please say and we can discuss this and work on this however I will not be offended if you would rather try working with someone else. This is your space and it needs to work for you.
I am a warm and friendly person and will encourage you to empower yourself.
I am looking forward to working with you ☺️

Laura Arstall is a person centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of clinical experience. She trained in the UK and completed a level 7 BACP accredited course, and is a registered member of the BACP (#00948037).
Her practice centres on the client – sessions are guided by the topics the client brings and she will not push anyone to discuss things they are not ready to explore. If a client prefers a more directive, solution-focused style, Laura can provide Solution Focus Therapy on request.
Laura works with individuals, couples and families, offering therapy both remotely and in person. She often supports parents to help them better meet their children’s needs. Her clinical work covers a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, eating difficulties, anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue. She also has experience with suicidal thoughts, self-harm, assault, domestic violence, sexuality and gender questioning, communication and motivation, and with neurodiversities such as ADHD and autism.
She aims to provide a non-judgemental and safe space where clients can work at their own pace. If any conflict arises in the therapeutic relationship, Laura is open to discussing it and will support a client’s decision to try a different therapist if that would be better for them. She brings a warm, friendly manner to sessions and encourages clients to build their own resources and strengths. She looks forward to working with clients who are ready to begin.
Many people want to know whether online therapy can really help. For common difficulties such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems and navigating life changes, research and practice indicate that online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person work.
One major advantage is flexibility – clients can choose the format that works best for them, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work when attending in person is difficult.
Therapists delivering online care are licensed professionals, and clients can change therapists if they feel another fit would be better. For many people facing everyday mental health and relationship concerns, online therapy offers an accessible, effective option to begin making progress.
