Mrs Laura Vowels

Relationship Therapist

“I'm a BACP registered therapist committed to improving relationships through emotion-focused therapy.”

About Me

I help couples and individuals navigate the emotional currents that shape their connections. Using emotion-focused therapy, we gently explore underlying feelings, helping you understand patterns and find new ways to relate. This collaborative approach fosters deeper understanding and connection, enabling you to build more fulfilling relationships. It's ideal for those seeking to transform communication and move past old frustrations.

Approach

I work session by session, beginning with a focused assessment then co-creating clear goals we revisit regularly. Using emotion-focused techniques, I guide couples and individuals through short experiential exercises, chair work and structured conversations to surface unmet needs and shift reactivity. I map interaction patterns, introduce simple homework to practice new responses, and adapt pacing for children or online sessions. I offer check-ins in English or Finnish and prioritize emotional safety while encouraging practical, sustainable changes.
