About Laura
Laura Saggers is an NCPS counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of practice. She sees adults concerned about relationship strain, family and parenting pressures, career stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and anger. She also helps people coping with life changes and compassion fatigue.
Laura works in straightforward, practical ways. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) alongside other familiar counselling ideas. Sessions focus on talking through what is happening now, spotting unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns, and trying simple experiments to test new ways of responding.
Her background includes a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, a Bachelor of Arts with Honours and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education. She is registered with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, takes regular supervision and keeps up continued professional development.
People can expect clear, session-by-session attention to the problems they bring. Laura offers both short-term and longer-term work, and she provides telephone and video counselling for convenience. Practical suggestions, reflecting on patterns from past experience, and basic CBT tools often form part of a typical session.
Clients booking a first appointment complete a short matching questionnaire before their initial meeting. International clients are accepted and sessions are delivered in English. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
How CBT and talking approaches work in remote sessions
CBT focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. In practice this means identifying patterns that fuel anger or anxiety, trying small behaviour changes and reviewing what helps. It works well for practical problems like workplace frustration, relationship conflict and managing stress.Person-centred ideas concentrate on listening, clarifying what matters and helping a person feel understood. Psychodynamic perspectives look at recurring patterns from earlier life that turn up in current relationships. Combining these with CBT gives a balance of present-focused strategies and reflection on underlying patterns.
Finding the right mix is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches and adjust based on what the client finds most helpful. This is a collaborative process that aims to match techniques to day-to-day needs and realistic steps.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting counselling into a busy week and avoiding travel time. Telephone or video sessions can make it easier to have a shorter check-in, manage a weekly appointment around work or access support while living outside the therapist's immediate area. Confirm which session formats are offered when you book so you can plan what will work best for you.
