FROM SELF-CRITICISM TO SELF-COMPASSION
Hi, Iβm Laura, a therapist who works with people whoβve learned to cope by pushing themselves, over thinking or trying to stay in control.
You might be very self-critical.
You might feel overwhelmed by anxiety or internal pressure.
You might be neurodivergent and exhausted from trying to βget it rightβ.
In therapy, we focus on building emotional tolerance, managing your inner critic and helping you develop a more compassionate, realistic relationship with yourself.
Testimonials
βItβs been useful to have a safe space to say things that Iβve maybe been too embarrassed to talk about elsewhere. To be honest, I was a bit sceptical when starting CBT so my expectations were low but I can honestly say they surpassed them all."
βI found the therapy really helpful. Lauraβs approach is reassuring and validating. I felt very well supported and her recall of pertinent points from what we have previously discussed was excellent."
Contact me
A good fit between therapist and client is an important part of effective therapy. Thatβs why I offer all prospective clients a free 15-minute phone call. Itβs an opportunity for you to ask questions, share a little about whatβs bringing you to therapy, and get a feel for how I work. We can talk through what youβd like to get out of therapy and explore how I might be able to support you. Please do get in touch to book a call
