About Laura

Laura Kun is a counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) in the United Kingdom, with 11 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and depression. She also helps with life changes and career concerns.

Laura treats each person as the expert on their own life. She listens to what matters and helps people identify strengths they already have. Sessions are practical and conversational rather than full of technical language.

Her approach draws on client-centred principles and cognitive behavioural ideas. That means sessions often focus on what someone wants to change now and on small steps that can reduce distress. She also uses existential and solution-focused ideas when they suit a persons needs.

People can expect clear, down-to-earth discussion about current problems such as addiction, relationship strain, body image, or feelings of isolation. Laura will work with a client to set simple goals and try out different ways of coping between sessions.

She has experience supporting people through dilemmas like divorce and separation, dependent personality patterns, codependency, and guilt or shame. Laura can also help with practical concerns such as career direction and managing anger. If someone is unsure what to expect, she guides the first session to clarify priorities and next steps.

How Laura uses therapy approaches online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a persons experience. The counsellor follows the clients lead, reflects what they say and helps them make sense of feelings. This approach suits people who want a space to talk through struggles and to build confidence in their own decisions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses simple exercises and small experiments to test unhelpful thinking and develop new coping habits. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic and repetitive negative thinking.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Laura discusses options with each client and chooses approaches together based on goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape session focus and short-term plans.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel, shortening a check-in, or using less bandwidth when video is difficult. Many people find that remote sessions let them attend from a quieter place and keep therapy consistent around work or family commitments.
