Laura Doughty

I am an Integrative Psychotherapist with a core foundation in Person-Centred Therapy, specialising in working with trauma, nervous system regulation, and low self-esteem. My approach is warm, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs.

I believe no two journeys are the same. That’s why I combine interventions from a range of therapeutic approaches, always guided by what feels right for you. By working holistically, I help you not only process your past experiences but also build the tools and inner strength to move forward with confidence.

If you’re ready to feel more grounded, valued, and empowered in your life, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

I offer a supportive, collaborative and non-judgemental sessions where you can explore whatever is bringing you to therapy at your own pace. My approach is grounded in respect for your lived experience, and I aim to work alongside you rather than take an expert-over-client stance.

I integrate different therapeutic approaches depending on your needs, which may include person-centred, psychodynamic and relational perspectives. This means we might explore both current difficulties and patterns that have developed over time, always with a focus on understanding rather than judgement.

I believe the therapeutic relationship is a key part of meaningful change, so I place importance on building trust, safety and consistency. Sessions are guided by what feels most important to you, whether that’s working through specific challenges, exploring emotions, or making sense of past experiences.

I work at a pace that feels manageable for you, and you are free to decide what you want to bring into sessions. There is no expectation to have things clearly worked out before you come.

My aim is to help you feel more understood, more connected to yourself, and better able to navigate the difficulties you are facing, while also supporting your capacity for growth and self-compassion.
