Lara, therapist and coach.
Welcome to my tranquil corner of the web. I'm delighted that you've arrived here.
My background
After finishing a degree in Psychology, I found myself at a crossroads. Part of me wanted to gain hands on experience supporting people and the other part wanted to venture into the commercial world and build a career in HR.
A decade later, with experience as an HR professional in start-ups and global organisations alongside my own counselling practice, I can finally say, I get to do both.
Since completing my post graduate diploma in integrative counselling and coaching, accredited by the BACP, I have gained experience working with a Young Persons charity and private clients with a range of presenting issues.
More recently I have qualified as a Mindfulness teacher which I am equally enjoying integrating into my work with clients.
Counselling
I am an integrative counsellor which means I use a blend of approaches based on the individuals needs.
I work with clients on range of issues and my sweet spot is confidence, identity and anxiety.
Registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
Coaching
The demands and pressures of today's fast-paced environment can take a toll on your mental health. That's why I offer transformative coaching services designed specifically for Millennial Leaders in the workplace.
Together, we'll navigate the unique challenges you face and help you prioritize your mental well-being alongside achieving your goals.
A blend
Whilst there are differences between counselling and coaching, there is a lot of crossover too. This means that throughout our time together we will likely use a blend of both therapeutic and coaching tools, dependant on your preferences and needs.
