Laura Fortune, BACP

Laura Fortune is a United Kingdom based therapist with four years of professional experience supporting people through addictions, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, and parenting challenges. She works with individuals and families to address complex emotional concerns such as attachment difficulties, codependency, communication breakdowns, and substance use, bringing focused, evidence-informed care to each presenting issue.

Holding BACP membership - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she follows recognised professional standards in her practice. Laura aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared and explored, and where practical coping strategies and deeper relational patterns can be considered together.

Beginning therapy often requires courage, and Laura acknowledges that first step with warmth and encouragement. She collaborates with clients to set goals and to tailor sessions to their needs, offering steady support as people work through loss, family transitions, trauma responses, or the challenges of parenting and recovery from addiction.

Evidence-Informed Approaches Delivered Online

Laura Fortune uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the issues she most commonly treats. She applies skills-focused work for addictions and coping strategies that help reduce urges, manage triggers, and build healthier routines, while also offering trauma-informed approaches that support processing difficult experiences and reducing the impact of past abuse or distress.

She also emphasises relational and family-focused work to address parenting challenges, blended family dynamics, communication problems, and attachment concerns, helping people develop clearer boundaries and more effective interaction patterns. Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process - Laura partners with each client to decide which techniques best fit their needs, goals, and preferences over time.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexible access to care and make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules or family routines. These formats support continuity of work, allow for timely check-ins, and make it possible to receive consistent support from licensed professionals regardless of location within the United Kingdom.
