Laura Spagnuolo, BACP

Laura Spagnuolo helps people facing stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, trauma and intimacy problems. She also supports people dealing with sleep and eating concerns, anger, low self‑esteem and major life changes. Laura welcomes conversations about family strain, caregiver stress, body image, codependency and feelings of emptiness or shame. She works in English and Italian and practises online from the United Kingdom.

Laura is a BACP counsellor with four years' experience. She offers a calm, accepting space to talk without judgement. Sessions focus on understanding what keeps you stuck and finding practical ways to move forward.

Her style is person-centred and attachment-informed. This means she pays close attention to how early relationships shape current patterns. She listens first, then helps people notice repeating behaviours and how those patterns affect relationships and daily life.

Therapy with Laura often includes looking at commitments, communication and control issues. She explores feelings around abandonment, dependent or avoidant tendencies, and challenges such as divorce or separation. Work may also address guilt, forgiveness and restoring a sense of agency.

Sessions aim to build awareness so people can make clearer choices. Laura will support clients to identify helpful habits and let go of unhelpful ones. Over time the goal is greater clarity, more satisfying relationships and a stronger sense of self.

How attachment and person-centred work translate online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape the way people relate today. Online sessions help identify repeating patterns in relationships and reduce behaviours that cause distress. Client-Centred Therapy places the person and their experience at the centre; the counsellor listens with empathy and helps clients find their own solutions to problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laura will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and goals. Together they will check in regularly and adjust the way they work as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical benefits such as flexibility and easier access. Video calls allow fuller conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can fit into busy days and need less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to keep continuity and fit therapy into everyday life.
