Laurie Hole

I work exclusively online, offering sessions via Zoom or telephone.

My working days are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.

Hi - I鈥檓 Laurie, a psychotherapist who understands what it鈥檚 like to feel lost and invisible.

Maybe you鈥檙e here because you never quite feel good enough -needing to do more and be more, just to feel like you fit in. Hiding behind a mask because you believe no-one would like the real you. Maybe you've been feeling stuck, anxious and disconnected for so long, it's become your normal - always overthinking and second-guessing yourself. Maybe you're tired of giving everything of yourself to other people, only to be left feeling drained and resentful.

Maybe you鈥檙e reading this because things have become too heavy to carry alone - but you鈥檙e still wondering, 鈥淚s it really that bad?鈥�

If any of this sounds like you, it doesn鈥檛 have to stay this way. Therapy can help you make sense of your story, and start letting go of the idea that you have to earn your worth.

Our early life experiences shape how we show up now - especially if you learned early on to hide your feelings, take up as little space as possible, or quietly shift who you are to fit in. This can leave you:

• Struggling with your confidence, sense of worth, or how you feel about yourself.
• Drawn to people who need you or relationships that feel one-sided - even if they don't appear that way on the surface.
• Struggling to say how you feel, or unsure what you鈥檙e feeling.
• Trying hard to get it "right" but feeling like you always get it 鈥渨rong.鈥�
• Shutting down during conflict or feeling as though it's always your fault for getting things wrong.
• Carrying a constant sense of guilt.

If you鈥檙e ready - or even just curious - to understand yourself better, we can create a space that helps you untangle what's been holding you back.

Whatever you're going through, and however you're feeling - all of you is welcome here.

I offer a warm, down-to-earth space where we follow your lead. Therapy with me is human, collaborative, and grounded in trust, connection, and real conversation - there鈥檚 no blank slate here.

I won鈥檛 give you advice or quick fixes, but I will gently challenge and offer insights and reflections that support you in feeling more confident and fulfilled. You deserve to build a life - and form relationships - that feel meaningful and good to be in.

When words or feelings are hard to find, we鈥檒l use metaphor, humour, or creativity. This might include a blend of trauma-informed and creative approaches that help you tune into what鈥檚 happening beneath the surface, when talking alone doesn鈥檛 quite feel like enough.

Clients often share they leave therapy feeling:

• Less anxious, lost, stuck, or weighed down.
• Less caught up in self-doubt, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or overthinking.
• Confident in how they show up - in their life, choices, and relationships.
• Hopeful and trusting in themselves going forward.
• Able to understand and express what they鈥檙e feeling, rather than pushing it aside.
• Connected to who they are - not just who others want or expect them to be.
• Able to recognise and honour their own needs.
• Kinder, more patient and compassionate towards themselves.

This is all possible for you too - even if it doesn鈥檛 feel that way just yet.

If you're curious about working together, I warmly invite you to get in touch to book a free 15-minute exploratory call. It's a chance to get a feel for how I work, ask any questions, and see if we're a good fit - with no pressure or obligation.

All sessions are held online so you can join from anywhere that feels comfortable and confidential. Your pets are always welcome too!
