Laura Hutchings

I currently have availability for new clients. Please contact me for my available slots. 

My approach to therapeutic work is warm, relaxed and collaborative. I am an integrative therapist meaning I tailor my approach to suit each individual I work with.

Therapy isn't just for times of crisis. Common reasons for seeking therapy are feeling sad, anxious or depressed. Perhaps you are seeking help for a specific reason such as the loss of a job, the loss of a loved one or problems in your relationship. Maybe you feel stuck in your job, in your life or in relationships and you're not sure why. Together we can explore what's on your mind in a non judgemental and confidential space.

Research has shown that a good therapeutic relationship is essential to successful therapy which is why I believe the most important factor is that you feel comfortable and safe enough to be able to share how you are feeling. 

I am a qualified BACP Accredited Psychotherapist. I completed a masters degree in Therapeutic Counselling and trained in integrative psychotherapy so I am able to work with a range of therapeutic modalities, ranging from CBT to psychodynamic approaches, depending on your needs.

As well as working in private practice, I worked as a counsellor at a community based charity in East London for two years working with a wide range of wellbeing and mental health issues.

Prior to training as psychotherapist I worked in advertising and then education so I am able to draw on experience of working in both corporate and academic environments.

I am a registered and accredited member of the BACP and adhere to their code of ethics and standards of professional practice.

An initial session allows you to experience what therapy might be like and there is no obligation to commit to sessions straightaway. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me and I can answer any questions you may have.
