Lara is a compassionate and experienced counsellor, and a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), offering both short-term and open-ended therapy that is carefully tailored to each individual’s needs in a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental environment.
Her integrative approach draws on training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Person-Centred Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, enabling flexible and evidence-informed support across a range of concerns. Lara works with adults to address anxiety, stress and work-related stress, panic and OCD, depression, life transitions (including mid-life challenges), health-related psychological distress, and issues around confidence and creative blockage.
Grounded in evidence-based interventions but always responsive to each person’s unique journey, Lara collaborates with clients to foster insight, resilience, and personal growth — whether you are exploring the past, navigating present challenges, or looking toward future possibilities.
In addition to counselling, Lara offers Executive Coaching informed by her counselling expertise and over two decades of senior management and business leadership experience.
