About Laura
Laura Calabro is a counsellor registered with the HCPC who has worked in both the NHS and independent practice. She brings 14 years of experience from the United Kingdom and Italy to sessions. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties and trauma-related struggles.
Her approach is practical and person-centred. She works with each person to build a plan that fits their life and goals.
Background and approach
Conversations are straightforward and paced to the client’s comfort. People can expect a mixture of talking therapy and specific techniques tailored to their needs. Laura draws on therapies that help with emotional regulation, trauma processing and understanding patterns that cause pain.
She commonly uses methods that address coping skills, past hurts and current relationship stresses. She also supports work on body image, eating concerns, addiction and identity issues within LGBT experiences. Sessions are offered in English and Italian, and she accepts clients from the UK and internationally.
Formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Fees vary by location and therapist availability and use a cancellable subscription model. Taking the first step can feel hard.
Laura aims to make the process clear and manageable. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

Online support
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing helps people process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional charge. Delivered remotely, the therapist guides paced processing and grounding techniques while tracking reactions and emotional shifts during the session.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and then suggest one or a blend of methods. Decisions about technique are collaborative and reviewed as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or when typing helps you think through feelings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to stay connected from different locations.
