About Laura Scotland

Laura Scotland is a qualified creative psychotherapist registered with the BACP, the UK professional association for counselling and psychotherapy. She works from a person-centred creative stance, giving clients space to bring and explore the topics that matter most to them while offering gentle guidance and options for processing material.

Her approach blends talking with creative methods when appropriate - suggesting mark-making, movement, or the use of metaphors to help express and make sense of experience. She adapts interventions to each person, proposing verbal exploration or nonverbal creative techniques depending on what feels most helpful.

Laura has supported people with stress, anxiety, family conflicts, grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. She also has experience helping clients navigate life changes and trauma. In all work she aims to respond with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, listening first to understand what the client wants to focus on.

During the initial session she establishes the client’s priorities and tailors subsequent meetings to meet those specific needs. She recognises that starting therapy can take courage and approaches that step with encouragement and a collaborative spirit.

One clear benefit is flexibility. Individuals can choose the mode of connection that suits them best, whether that is a face-to-face video call, a phone conversation, live chat, or text-based messaging. That flexibility helps therapy fit into busy schedules and different life circumstances.
