Testimonials
"Working with Laurence over a six-month period was a profoundly transformative experience. Laurence gave me the close attention, understanding and care that I had stopped being able to give myself. As a consequence I have been able to identify what I needed to change in order to be able to do these things for myself." RS, 59, 2024
​​"When I first met Laurence my life felt incredibly bleak. A recent bereavement had caused an overwhelming sense of sadness and hopelessness that was affecting every aspect of my life. To even acknowledge that I needed help was to show a vulnerability that I had spent over 50 years avoiding. It is a credit to Laurence’s warmth, insight and humour that I found our sessions not only effective but genuinely enjoyable. For the first time in my life I feel comfortable in my own skin and I know that it’s ok not to be ok all of the time. Laurence has taught me how to recognise when I’m starting to feel overwhelmed and has helped me to find real life, practical strategies to even out my moods and energy levels."​​
"I worked with Laurence for 3-4 months to help me address issues of anxiety, rumination and catastrophising. I found her approach to be very warm and affirming, she helped me to explore the roots of my anxiety and develop new perspectives which significantly reduced my presenting issues. I can honestly say that I feel much calmer now in my mind and am not currently experiencing any issues with anxiety." PC
