About Laura

I am an experienced registered psychologist who works with children (5+), adolescents and adults. I have experience working with individuals and families navigating a number of life challenges and transitions, alongside treating mental health presentations such as depression, generalised anxiety, OCD and PTSD. In my work I place an emphasis on creating a safe therapeutic space for clients in order to facilitate growth, new insights and change. I am trained in and use a range of evidence-based therapeutic interventions combined with person-centered therapy. I have also completed some training in Emotion-focused Therapy and Schema Therapy and use these in my work. In my work with children I combine play, creative interventions and talking therapy, and work systemically involving family members and schools. I am also able to provide appointments in German and Finnish.
