Laura Adams, BACP

Laura Adams is a psychodynamic therapist based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional practice. She brings additional years of experience supporting people in a range of settings, and she focuses on helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self esteem, loss of motivation, and depression. Her work also addresses the challenges of coping with life changes and a range of related concerns such as attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, control issues, and isolation.

Laura approaches therapy from a strengths-based viewpoint, believing that each person is the expert in their own story and that existing strengths can be mobilized to work through current challenges. Her model of practice is psychodynamic therapy, delivered in live sessions by video or audio, which explores underlying patterns, emotional responses, and relational dynamics to support deeper self-understanding and change. She is accredited by the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which reflects a professional standard of training and practice.

Clients who work with Laura can expect a thoughtful, empathetic approach that aims to clarify personal goals, build coping strategies, and strengthen the capacities needed to manage life stressors and relationship concerns.

Psychodynamic insight and practical techniques for online therapy

Laura Adams works primarily with psychodynamic therapy, a talking-based approach that explores patterns in feelings, relationships, and past experiences to uncover how they influence present-day difficulties. This approach can help with recurring anxiety, relationship struggles, low self esteem, and coping with life changes by increasing self-understanding and emotional insight.

Alongside psychodynamic work, Laura uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the presenting issue. These practical strategies focus on building coping skills, improving communication, and managing symptoms of stress and depression so clients can apply what they learn between sessions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Laura will work with each client to identify goals, review what helps and what does not, and adapt methods to fit individual needs and preferences. This collaborative stance helps ensure that therapy stays relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reach support from different locations, and continue consistent work even when life circumstances change. Licensed professionals, including therapists like Laura, use these formats to provide ongoing, effective care that aligns with a client’s routine and needs.
