Laura Manifold

Hi, I’m Laura, a registered Â鶹ԭ´´ integrative counsellor.

Having gone through my own mental health challenges in life I understand only too well how exhausting and overwhelming it can feel and how much courage it takes to seek a helping hand. Reaching out can feel difficult, but for me it was transformative and I hope I can offer the same for you.

Through our counselling relationship together we can explore your emotions, feelings, thoughts and lived experiences in a safe supportive and confidential space and this can help to gain clarity and understanding, recognise unhelpful patterns, and empower you to become the person you truly feel you are and want to be.

I have extensive experience in working with survivors of abuse and the trauma that can remain with us long after.  

I offer a flexible personalised approach to counselling, combining different therapeutic approaches (including creatively if this appeals to you) to suit my client's individual needs at that moment in time. 

I offer individual therapy sessions, working both online or in-person in south east London. I work with clients on both a short term and long term basis.  

I offer a free 20 minute phone call where we can discuss the reasons you’re thinking about therapy, how I may be able to help and to see if I’m the right therapist for you.  I believe the counselling relationship is the most important aspect and it's therefore essential that you feel heard, understood and comfortable.
