Welcome to Laura Storey Therapy.
A place to explore, be curious and heard...
Hello, I'm Laura,
AN INTEGRATIVE & HUMANISTIC PSYCHOTHERAPIST-in-training
Perhaps you’re here because something in life feels difficult, unsettled or hard to make sense of. Maybe you’re struggling with something specific, or you simply have a feeling that things could be different, but you’re not sure how. You don't have to arrive knowing exactly what you need. We can begin where you are.
what might we explore together?
- You might be struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, relationships, grief, difficult life changes, feeling stuck, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself.
- You might understand intellectually why you feel the way you do, but still find yourself caught in familiar patterns.
- Or perhaps you can't quite put your finger on what's wrong — you just know that something doesn't feel right.
- You don't need to arrive with a diagnosis or a clear explanation. We can start wherever you are.
supporting people through grief and loss
Alongside my psychotherapy training, I have almost two years' experience supporting people who have experienced bereavement through my work as a volunteer counsellor at The Harbour in Bristol.
Grief can be unpredictable and deeply personal. There is no single way to grieve, and sometimes the feelings that come with loss can be difficult to understand or share with the people around us.
My experience has taught me the importance of having somewhere you can bring whatever is present — sadness, anger, guilt, confusion, relief, longing, or simply the feeling of not knowing how to move forward.
If you're experiencing a loss, I can offer a space where you don't have to make sense of everything straight away. We can take things at your pace and explore what your experience of grief is like for you.
starting therapy
1. Get in touch
Send me an email or get in touch to arrange a free 15-minute phone call. This gives us an opportunity to briefly introduce ourselves and for you to ask any questions.
2. Our first session
Our first session is an opportunity to begin exploring what has brought you to therapy and what you'd like from our work together. It's also a chance for you to get a sense of what it feels like to talk with me.
3. If we decide to work together
If we both feel that working together would be helpful, we will usually meet weekly. We can take things at your pace and regularly think together about how the therapy is going.

Training and Professional Memberships
To ensure I practice ethically and provide psychotherapy with compassion and care, I regularly meet with an experienced, accredited supervisor. This collaboration not only helps me maintain boundaries to keep us both safe during our individual therapy sessions but also enhances my knowledge and skills. Supervision helps both me, and my clients, grow.
