Laura Kun, BACP

Laura Kun is a counsellor with 11 years of professional experience who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, low self-esteem and depression. She works with clients who are coping with life changes, anger, career concerns and family difficulties. Laura approaches each person as the expert on their own life and offers support to help them move towards greater fulfilment.

Her style is practical and collaborative. She listens first, then helps people identify small steps that feel achievable. Sessions focus on what matters right now and on building strengths that clients already have. The aim is to make change feel possible rather than overwhelming.

Laura draws on client-centred ways of working that prioritise the client’s experience. She also uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and solution-focused methods to help people shift thinking patterns and set clear, realistic goals. Existential ideas can be brought in when people want to explore meaning, values and purpose.

Her background includes registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which she lists as BACP. Laura has spent over a decade seeing people through a wide range of challenges, including addiction and family problems. She encourages a steady pace so clients can test out changes between sessions.

Sessions are aimed at helping people talk through problems, practise new ways of thinking, and try different behaviours. Laura supports people to notice small successes and build on them, while respecting their own pace and priorities.

How Laura’s approaches translate to online work

Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens deeply, follows what matters to the client and helps them make choices that fit their life. This approach is useful for people who need space to tell their story and be heard.

Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers practical tools for noticing unhelpful thinking and trying different behaviours. This can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and addiction-related patterns.

Solution-focused work concentrates on small, achievable steps and on what is already working. It helps people set clear goals and try experiments between sessions to build momentum.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The counsellor will discuss options with the client and jointly decide what to try first. That choice is reviewed over time and adjusted to match the client’s goals and preferences.

Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as these are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or offering options that suit different schedules. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt their methods so sessions focus on practical steps, emotional processing and building skills regardless of the setting.
