Laura Ward, BACP

Laura Ward is a UK-based therapist with BACP accreditation and three years of professional experience. She approaches therapy with the belief that nobody is exempt from life’s ups and downs, and that those experiences can leave people feeling stuck or unsure of the next step. Laura works at a pace set by each person, offering support to heal, to explore present difficulties, and to make changes when the client feels ready.

Her practice includes focused work on motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, and she has experience supporting people affected by emotional abuse, low self-worth, depression and anxiety. Laura helps clients examine how distressing events and generational patterns shape thoughts and perceptions, and she also supports those navigating the grief cycle after a loss. She aims to help clients reconnect with a sense of identity and connection while developing greater self-awareness.

Laura has worked with many children and families on the autism and ADHD spectrum, bringing a warm and deeply empathic style to those sessions. She strives to meet people where they are, offering a non-judgemental and supportive environment for exploring thoughts, emotions and life experiences. Her approach is rooted in respect for the individual’s expertise in their own story, and she uses that foundation to help build resilience, foster self-compassion, and encourage enduring personal growth.

Taking the first step toward therapy often takes courage, and Laura values the decision to get started. She looks forward to supporting people on their journey toward greater wellbeing and fulfilment, and she reminds those seeking help that they are not alone.
