Birth Trauma & Hypnobirthing
After having an emergency c-section and spending ten days in hospital, I was extremely anxious about giving birth again. I really wanted to have a positive mindset but couldn't stop worrying. Laura was amazing in helping me deal with the trauma from the first birth and getting me in a really positive and calm mindset. I felt I was ready for anything!

Sophia

Self-confidence & Focus
When you said that you wanted to use an NLP approach I was a little sceptical but but I knew nothing about it, so my scepticism was unwarranted. I was curious to see what it was about and I'm always up for new experiences, so I decided to give it a try and did so with an open mind. I wasn't disappointed. The concept of 'future memories' and allowing yourself to experience the feelings that accompany them is absolutely brilliant! Tasks suddenly feel less daunting because you already have that sense of achievement. It also boosts your mood, self-esteem, confidence etc and, in a way, you're setting goals for yourself.

Birth Trauma (PN PTSD)
I just wanted to thank you so much, you've helped me so much. I've not had any flashbacks this week and I feel like a huge weight of fear and anxiety has just been lifted. I actually spoke to my friend about my birth experience for the first time, and all I talked about were the good points! You've changed my whole perspective and I feel like I can have another child in the future as that one day of pain is so worth everything else!
I really appreciate your help, I can't thank you enough.

Laura is calming, confident, professionals and very attentive to your specific needs. I feel like the old me again.

Social Anxiety in adolescence

If you have a teenager who is struggling with anxiety or depression I would urge you take them to see Laura. We can’t recommend her highly enough. From the first meeting we could see a difference. Laura is a lovely lady who genuinely cares. We’re very grateful for her help.

Denise

Anxiety & Depression
Depressed, Anxious and unable to cope, I found Laura when I was at the end of my tether. I was in such a terrible state and thus I was dead certain that it would countless sessions before I'd feel any change at all. I couldn't have been more wrong - after just one session I was already feeling better, and the next session yielded even more improvement and so on to a point where I have very nearly completely pulled myself together. I am immensely grateful to Laura for the massive role she has played in getting me back on my feet.

Melissa

Weight Management and Motivation

Laura is an exceptional hypnotherapist. Each session is different and always bespoke to me. Our sessions have been an incredibly healing therapy for me and unlike any other hypnotherapy, I've ever had. Laura has even created walking audios for me as I struggle to listen to the traditional audio tracks. I'd highly recommend her.

Louise

Anxiety and Confidence

Laura has totally transformed my life! I feel happier, and more confident and people can really see the difference in me. Laura is so caring and I couldn’t recommend her enough! My sessions with her gave me skills that have benefited my everyday life to the point of I’m now doing things that I’d never of thought I could. Laura made me feel so at ease and I never felt judged only supported. I'm so grateful.

Lucy

Birth Trauma and anxiety
Initially I just felt really contented and relaxed after our session and that lasted a few days which was nice! I've also been feeling a noticeable rush of love for my boys. I've been appreciating how amazing they are this week and been full of pride. It's like I'm really seeing them for the first time!

Vicky

Birth Trauma (PN PTSD)
I am truly grateful, I haven't had any flashbacks about my birth which is brilliant. I feel like a dark cloud which has been hanging over me for two years has been lifted. I feel as though I can do almost anything. I can enjoy being a mum and spend time with my children. I used to feel as though I was letting them down constantly. I have noticed a huge change in my partner too, thank you so much.

Depression and Anxiety

Minds aligned, has helped me immensely. Hard to put into words how far I have come since starting my hypnotherapy with Laura. I had spent years of trying different methods, therapies and medicines (they just didn’t work for me) But Laura helped me focus on what was important and regain my strength and confidence. I can’t recommend her enough, such a kind, patient and accommodating experience. I will forever be thankful. And I know if I need to go back I can count on this method of therapy to help clear my mind and provide rationale.

Grace

Complex PTSD

Laura is a very compassionate, trusting and understanding person; this was a critical factor for me as I have a lot of complex mental health issues that, in my opinion, are difficult to deal with but most of all difficult to understand. Laura has made it very easy for me to speak openly about a specific issue that has haunted me since I can remember. Still, most importantly, she has understood and knew exactly what was needed to be done in sessions to deal with these issues but in a very calm and compassionate way. Laura has also explained why I have done certain behaviours over the years due to coping mechanisms from being abused, which has given me a lot of closure that previous therapists haven't been able to do.

I came to Laura with not just one issue but several, PTSD from my military service ( Afghanistan), stress from uni and life in general. But, the most challenging thing was from my childhood when I was sexually abused, and this has haunted me ever since. A year ago, I couldn't even say it to anyone, and Laura has empowered me to be able to talk about it without the fear of judgement. Last year I was under combat stress, and I never want to discredit their help, but what they did in 9 months, Laura has done that and more in just a few sessions.

This amazing lady is helping me get my life back together and see a future for my son and me. When I left the military, I grieved the void it left, and she is also helping me deal with that and make new healthy choices in life. I would more than recommend Laura. She is fantastic, and I trust her with everything, and trust is not something that comes easily to me with other people.

Birth Trauma
I found Laura through the Birth Trauma Association and was dubious about hypnotherapy and it’s effectiveness. But I had nothing left to lose in giving it a go. I thought it would be all ‘hippy dippy’, or ‘Derren Brown turns you into a chicken’ type work...I couldn’t be more wrong. The session was in depth and incredibly visual. I was concentrating so hard on my new ‘surroundings’, that I was completely immersed in exactly what Laura was saying. Listening to her calming voice, I was walked through prominent and key moments in my life - painful moments that were hard to revisit. However, Laura does not leave you there. Her genuine care and interest in my emotional well-being has gone above and beyond in my expectation of any professional. In fact, it almost makes up for the mistreatment I experienced under other healthcare. There are few strangers you come across that change your life. I’ve never met Laura face to face, only twice and only over Zoom. However, she’s changed my life immeasurably and for that I cannot say enough thank yous. Highly recommended for any anxiety, stress or trauma issues.

Avoidant Attachment and Relationships

What can I say about Laura? She is the most compassionate, upbeat and amazing therapist ever. I have extreme trust issues based on my life and trauma but I wholeheartedly trust her. Her methodology and knowledge is so advanced and her sessions leave me feeling like I am part of this amazing universe. She checks in to see how I'm feeling daily and I couldn't recommend her enough. Absolutely amazing person inside and out. Thank you so much Laura x

Lewis

Anxiety and Overwhelm

I've learned so much about myself. I used to always overthink and worry, especially at work, but I feel like I now have the tools to cope. I was initially sceptical but the process was incredible and I can't believe how much better I feel. Its like retraining your brain.

Alex

Depression

I have been seeing Laura for a few months now and she has totally changed my life. Each session has been so enlightening, I come away feeling refreshed and ready to face life again. I was suffering with deep depression and feeling hopeless, but now after just a few months, I’m excited for life again! Thank you Laura, you’ve given me hope again!

Rosie

Alcohol use and Anxiety

I have been working with Laura for 6 months now in relation to alcohol and anxiety issues.
I approached our sessions with an open mind and was surprised at how much came from them. I felt like a lot of feelings that I thought I had dealt with and buried actually came to the surface and how simply talking about them has helped me to understand why I have a negative relationship with alcohol.
I can slowly feel my mindset changing and as a result of that my life is changing. I can’t thank Laura enough for the support, professionalism, no judgement and for caring.

Jessie

Family Relationships and Trauma

I contacted Laura after trying many other therapies to work on reducing the impact of past trauma on everyday life. She was an incredible therapist and from the very first session, I felt a deep release. She helped me to let go of my attachment to the past and start to heal some of my family relationships. With this, my self-esteem is growing and I am starting to feel more joy in life again! I could not recommend Laura highly enough. Thank you for helping me begin a new chapter in my life, one of healing and letting go! You are a legend!

Linda

Family Dynamics

Laura is super understanding, caring and very intelligent so quick to figure out the best process to help guide you to the solution. Laura’s passion really shines through when working with her as she identifies the best method of therapy to use within her profession which clearly shows that Laura is an expert in her field so extra fabulous at understanding the computer that is our brain!
Laura has really helped me by guiding me through a thoughtful process that has had a massive improvement on my mental well-being so I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

Thank you Laura!

Bonnie

Endometriosis and Pain Management

I couldn't recommend hypnotherapy with 'Minds Aligned UK' enough. I've long struggled with both endometriosis p&in, and as a result of endo, chronic bloating. I came to Laura having exhausted all medical routes, and feeling very hopeless.
Laura was able to assess what course of action was best for me, and worked with me over a few weeks to build back up the control I had over my body.
I now experience far fewer symptoms and feel I have much more power over the situation. I cannot begin to explain the effect this has had on my life, and I will forever be grateful for the help Laura has given me.
Anyone with a chronic illness like endo will understand what an all-encompassing thing it can be, and to have someone who can help lift some of the weight off is priceless.
Note: The language in this review may seem mild to people who have this illness, or others like it. This is only as Google will delete my review if the language is too 'upsetting'.

Depression

Laura is the most wonderful person. She has helped me massively. There were many issues that I needed to work through and she has been patient, and that has helped me immensely. Being neurodivergent I needed someone who would understand that I may need a bit more time to get through the issues. The tools she has given me, which help with many aspects of my life, are absolutely invaluable. I cannot recommend her highly enough. The added bonus is that she is lovely, and I am so happy to have been sent her way.

Lydia

Hypnobirthing
Laura really helped me with my anxiety for my second birth. She made me feel super relaxed and helped me with all my worries. I would definitely recommend!

Kayleigh

Anxiety and Phobia

Laura is fantastic at what she does. She makes the process very accessible and down to earth and is a very empathetic, kind person on top of being a skilled professional. Would highly recommend her - she really helped me with anxiety and phobias, and general confidence, in a short period of time and I'm super happy with the results.

Anna

Family and relationships

Amazing therapist. I’ve seen plenty over the years, but Laura was incredibly insightful, gave really useful tools and really helped me. Highly highly recommend.

Caroline

PTSD symptoms and Betrayal

This method of therapy truly, genuinely, works. I was suffering from PTSD following a tr**m*t*c event in my life. Not only did the therapy help to ease my state of mind but it allowed me to think about and process the negative images and thoughts about the event with far more clarity than I could before.

Laura was a consummate professional throughout, very friendly, and extremely considerate to the sensitivity and nature of my situation. Not once did I feel uncomfortable during the sessions either. I couldn’t recommend this service enough to anyone whom needs or wants it

Health Anxiety

I can't thank Laura enough! Having suffered a trauma as a young child I had struggled with anxiety for much of my life. After only a few sessions with Laura I noticed I no longer felt the physical feelings of anxiety and had a more positive outlook on life. I now have the tools to continue on this positive journey to a happier, anxiety-free life!

Celia

Birth Trauma and Anxiety
I worked with Laura on some post birth trauma and anxieties.
I’d never used hypnotherapy before so I didn’t know what to expect but Laura put me at ease instantly and reassured me about the process.
I have felt an amazing new connection to my boys since the sessions and definitely see my birth stories in a new light and from a new angle. My anxieties are still there but I find myself more able to challenge them and push myself out of my comfort zone.
I would definitely recommend working with Laura to tackle any issues you have, I can’t believe the new mindset I have now.

Corrective Attachment

Laura has a very down to Earth, natural yet knowledgeable approach.
I love the way she combines neuroscience along with some spiritual aspects along with the hypnosis.
This way I feel it addresses all aspects, on both conscious and subconscious levels.
She is the first person in my life who has ever been able to assist me in understanding myself on even deeper levels than I already did.
Although it can be scary to unlock some of these things, I know that she is there to help guide me as I work through them.
