About Laine
Laine George is a counsellor who works from a person-centred, relational perspective. She emphasises the importance of the connections people have and aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space for conversations. Laine uses an integrative approach and draws on a range of therapeutic ideas to meet each person's needs. She holds BACP, which appears on the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy register, and brings three years of practice to her work.
Laine prefers to tailor sessions to the individual. She listens first and asks what matters most to the person. From there she draws on client-centred therapy principles alongside methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. Sessions are practical and rooted in everyday life, with short-term goals or broader exploration depending on what someone wants.
Her experience includes running a private practice and working in secondary schools since graduating. That mix has given her exposure to varied life situations and concerns. She continues to learn and adapt her approach with each person she meets.
Typical areas Laine addresses include stress and anxiety, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, depression and coping with life changes. The work aims to help people talk through what is hard and find manageable next steps.

How Laine adapts therapeutic approaches for online work
Laine draws on client-centred therapy to place the person and their experience at the heart of the work. That means the early sessions focus on listening, building trust and understanding what matters most to the individual. Attachment-based ideas look at how past relationships shape feelings and reactions, which can help with issues such as intimacy, anxiety and coping after loss. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers straightforward tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Laine will discuss goals, preferences and how someone responds to different ideas, then agree a way forward together. Plans can include brief, solution-focused steps or deeper, relational exploration depending on what the person wants to work on.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. It can also make it simpler to use mindfulness exercises and homework between sessions, helping people practise new ways of coping in everyday life.
