About Laurie
Laurie Falconer offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people who are feeling overwhelmed or stuck. She works with those facing stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, self-esteem struggles, life changes and the effects of past trauma. Laurie uses a gentle, person-centred way of working to help people talk through what matters to them and find clearer ways forward.
Laurie holds an MSc in Counselling & Psychotherapy with Distinction from the University of Strathclyde.
Background and approach
She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. She has four years of experience and has recently qualified as a clinical counselling supervisor. Sessions typically focus on what the individual brings into the room.
Laurie listens closely and reflects back what she hears so people can better understand their feelings and choices. She helps people identify patterns, try out new ways of coping and make practical steps that fit their life. Laurie divides her time between several counselling services and continues to study psychology with the Open University.
That ongoing study informs her practice and keeps her approach current. She aims to work at a pace that feels comfortable and to build a trusting relationship that supports change. If someone is unsure what to expect, Laurie can answer questions before starting.
She describes the first sessions as an opportunity to get a sense of priorities, set goals and decide how to proceed together.

Online support
Alongside person-centred work, Laurie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with problems such as trauma, addiction, ADHD-related challenges and relationship difficulties. These techniques can include structured ways of identifying patterns, developing coping strategies and practising new skills in everyday life.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Laurie will work with each person to identify goals, try different ways of working and agree what feels most helpful. That collaboration means the plan can adapt as needs and priorities change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and preferences. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit a short break at work, chat may feel quicker for brief check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make counselling more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
