Laura How | Counselling & Guidance - Axbridge

Matthew B.

I’ve thought long and hard about this review over a few weeks, and I thought I’d lead with the most important fact first, which is, I wouldn’t be the man or the father I am today without Laura’s guidance. I can proudly say that my integrity, my principles and my standards stand as firm as rock today and will forever remain a project that can be bettered, simply because of the value Laura has poured into my life. To me, Laura has been the necessary hard pill to swallow that we all need in our lives but all want to ignore. She helped me see the real value in life beyond all the hard decisions required to see it. Laura adapted her guidance to my ever changing emotions so as to never come across too direct or too gentle. Always leading me to the inevitable conclusions or decisions that needed to be faced. No amount of ‘thank you’s’, google reviews or words of gratitude will ever accurately portray how grateful I am for having Laura’s guidance. Instead, I get to see the results of her guidance in the peace in my life and the joy on the face of my daughter every day. So, this goes without saying, but, Thank You Laura.

Initially we considered Laura to be our couples counsellor from the reviews, then after meeting with Laura for an initial chat, we knew that Laura would be our choice, based on how she just got what was going on for us so quickly and what needed to change for us to move forward in our relationship. Each session Laura would guide us through this with such care and compassion.
Laura was always so welcoming, down to earth, open, compassionate, caring and always made it a space to feel relaxed and safe to open up.
Thank you so much Laura for what l learnt individually about myself and as a couple, so grateful.

I have had three fantastic sessions with Laura who is an outstanding relationship coach. During the sessions, she gave me several excellent tools to dissolve blockages in the relationship with my partner. On several occasions, she was an eye-opener who made me see possibilities I did not see myself, which made the relationship with my partner flourish in a way I could not have imagined.

I highly recommend Laura to anyone who feels they have reached an impasse with their partner. She is one of the best relationship coaches I have come across.

Working with Laura completely changed my life for the better. I turned up to our first session a broken woman devoid of joy and thinking that all life had left to give was to exist. Laura created a safe environment for me to finally address past traumas that had shaped me into the shell of a person I had become, and helped me to find myself again. I literally trusted Laura with my life, and now I have it back. Thank you Laura, there will never be enough words to express my gratitude for the time we spent working together.

I have been seeing Laura on and off for about 2 years now and i cannot find the words to express how grateful i am to have come across her. I was going through a particularly difficult time in my life and it was affecting my relationships with friends and family. I thought i was going to somehow gain some sympathy for my situation, while this is what i received to some extent, more importantly i gained and entirely new way of viewing the circumstances i had found myself in. Laura really helped me look within and focus on healing myself from years of trauma which had led me to behave in a way which was destructive. I gained practical advice on how to focus on my own mental health and well being as an individual and through this gained more compassion in my relationships. I feel like i understand more about myself as a person and the true nature of my being. I am now on my journey to discovering my purpose and i have hope. Theres light and the end of the tunnel for me now and thats something i have not gained from any other councellor. Lauras extensive knowledge on trauma and wellbeing from not only a psychological perspective but also a physiological one has truely given me a deeper understanding of myself. I would highly recommend couples councelling and also individual coucelling with Laura. Thank you Laura, your honesty, humour, understanding has really helped me through some dark times and i am a much stronger person because of you. Forever grateful x

I have been working with Laura for the past 6 months and she has truly been exceptional. From our very first session, she made me feel at ease and comfortable to talk about my thoughts and feelings. Laura is an excellent listener, and her insights have been incredibly valuable. It can be difficult discussing certain areas of your life but Laura made me feel comfortable and has helped me view things from different perspectives and I have left the sessions thinking about things in a new light.
As a result of our sessions, I feel more confident and empowered. I highly recommend Laura, she is truly great at what she does 🙂

I am unbelievably grateful I came across Laura. She guided me through a very tough situation, gave incredible amounts of support and also, pulled me up when I needed to hear something I may not have thought about. From this grew so much trust. It’s lovely to have someone there to listen to you, but a person to also have enough genuine care to want to help you grow is not something/ someone you come across often.
Laura picked up on little things that no one had ever noticed before, encouraging me to dig deeper into situations I’ve not previously dealt with.
With the help of Laura I’ve healed parts of me I didn’t even realise needed healing, I’ve grown as a woman and handled battles I never thought I could have.
Laura, I hope you know how impactful you are on peoples lives. I am so, so grateful for you, thank you!

From being an absolute wreck and being at the worst I have ever been. Being introduced to Laura most likely saved my life. She helped me work through my brain and point out the things that I need to change and work on. I am a completely different person with better views and opinions. Got me to learn to love myself and take care of my health. From going through quite a terrible breakup to now better and loving every second of my life …. I couldn’t recommend Laura any more she is such a calm, collected, brilliant therapist. She definitely helps!!!!
