Laura Adams

Laura Adams is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who brings four years of professional practice to her work. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she draws on earlier years supporting people in different community and care settings.

She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She also works with depression, low self-esteem and problems with motivation. Relationship difficulties and coping with life changes are other common issues she supports people through.

Laura believes each person knows their own story and has strengths to build on. In sessions she listens for those strengths and helps people use them to face what is hard. She aims to make the pace manageable and the process clear.

Her stated model of work is psychodynamic therapy delivered by live video or audio sessions. That approach looks at how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions, and it can be useful for recurring patterns, attachment concerns and feelings rooted in earlier relationships.

People who prefer reflective, talk-based work may find her style a good fit. Readers should confirm current session options before booking to make sure the format meets their needs.

How psychodynamic ideas translate to online therapy

Psychodynamic work focuses on patterns in emotions and relationships and how earlier life events shape current responses. In practice this means talking through memories, recurring feelings and relationship dynamics to make sense of why certain reactions keep happening; it can help with anxiety, relationship difficulties and attachment concerns.

Many therapists who use psychodynamic methods also include reflective exploration of self-esteem, guilt, shame and life transitions. This kind of approach suits people who want to slow down and look at long-standing patterns rather than just quick symptom relief. The therapist will work together with the client to decide how deep or practical the sessions should be, based on the client's aims and preferences.

Confirm the exact session options with the therapist before booking, as formats in the biography are described as live video or audio sessions. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows people to access a therapist from different locations, which can be helpful for those living abroad or who need more flexible scheduling.
