About Laura
Laura Spagnuolo is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of practice. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, depression, anger, sleep and eating difficulties, low self-esteem and major life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Italian and she accepts international clients.
Her style is straightforward and person-focused. She listens to each person’s story and looks for patterns that repeat in work and relationships. The aim is to help people notice unhelpful habits, understand where they come from, and make different choices over time.
Laura draws on attachment-based ideas and humanistic, client-centred practice. She also uses existential perspectives to help people explore meaning and choice in their lives. In practical terms this means talking through past experiences, reflecting on current reactions, and testing out alternatives in day-to-day life.
Sessions often involve mapping how earlier life experiences shape present behaviour. Laura helps people spot repeated dynamics - for example around control, abandonment or codependency - and weigh which responses are still useful. Work is paced to the individual and focuses on greater self-awareness and clearer decision-making.
Her background highlights a belief that change is possible and that the therapeutic relationship matters. People who want help managing anger, repairing relationships, or coping with life transitions may find a methodical, listening-based approach that combines understanding with practical reflection.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. Online sessions can focus on those recurring patterns and how they show up in present relationships and reactions. Client-centred practice emphasises listening and reflecting what matters to the person. In an online setting this often means time to tell your story and have it mirrored back so you can notice what you think and feel. Existential ideas invite questions about meaning, choice and responsibility. This can help when someone feels stuck, empty or unsure which life direction to take.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss which ideas fit your needs and goals. That choice is collaborative and may shift as you learn more about your patterns and options.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, or let people take part without needing to travel. Registered and accredited professionals use their approaches to help people bring insight into day-to-day situations and practise new responses within ordinary routines.
