THE WHY - THERAPY
You’re a deep thinker who has used your mind to navigate life’s challenges. Despite your resilience, you may feel overwhelmed by persistent thoughts and uncomfortable emotions, struggling to identify your needs while battling a harsh inner critic. You might have tried to overcompensate to prove yourself, only to end up feeling stuck—unable to do what you want or need to do. You may find yourself hiding or squashing parts of who you are, just to fit in.
You’re exhausted, yet you don’t know how to stop—until your body forces you to.
While you understand the importance of self-care, self-compassion, and setting healthy boundaries, you may not know how to apply these concepts in your own life.
Whether you're new to therapy or have had past experiences that didn’t feel right, it's important to know: you are neither too much nor not enough to be here. Even though you’re more than capable of doing things on your own, what if you didn’t have to?
Therapy can provide the space for you to explore these feelings, understand your inner world, and make meaningful changes—without judgment. If you're ready to move from overwhelm to clarity, I’m here to help.
THE THERAPIST
Hi, I’m Laura Wells (she/her), and I recognise the privilege I hold in offering support and care to others. I am deeply passionate about empowering you to release the weight of past traumas, while honouring your innate wisdom and ability to heal yourself.
I offer myself as an attuned witness, creating a collaborative space for you to share and process your experiences in a way that feels safe and meaningful. By tailoring the therapeutic process to your individual needs, values, and preferences, I aim to make your healing journey truly your own.
Through my own experiences, I’ve learned that quieting the inner storms and creating space for growth often doesn’t come from figuring everything out alone. Easing a harsh inner critic can require the presence of a calm and compassionate ally. I would like to be that ally for you—encouraging curiosity, self-soothing, and connection.
As an inclusive therapist, I will affirm your individuality and identity, acknowledging the cumulative and ongoing impact that minority stressors can have on your well-being. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can share your experiences, ways of being, needs and hopes in a way that is meaningful to you.
THE HOW - I WORK
Together, we will work on connecting with, processing, and releasing trauma, developing compassionate shifts in perspective, and creating space for you to make meaningful choices that align with your unique needs. My approach blends somatic and talking therapies with a holistic and spiritual perspective, allowing you to integrate mind, body, and spirit in your healing process.
I understand that systemic oppression—whether through ableism, racism, sexism, classism, cisgenderism, heterosexism, or other forms of marginalisation—can have a profound impact on mental health. In our work together, it’s crucial to address these external forces, so you can disentangle yourself from internalised negative beliefs.
In our work together, we will explore the connections between your mind, body, community, and history, helping you heal in a way that feels authentic and empowering. I’ve learned that restoring hope, possibility, and acceptance is not an individual journey; it’s about connection and community. I’m here to walk alongside you, honouring who you are and the powerful resilience you hold within.
"I am deeply grateful for every relationship that has touched my life, each one shaping me in profound ways. The lessons, growth, and love I've experienced through these connections have enriched my journey immeasurably. It is with a heart full of gratitude that I reflect on the impact others have had on me, and I am humbled by the opportunity to walk alongside each person on their unique path. To bare your pain, and witness your evolution, your challenges, and your triumphs would be an honour and I would be humbled to witness your journey alongside you. I would be delighted to talk with you about how I can support you in unlocking your own unique healing journey.
With heartfelt appreciation,
~ Laura"
