Laura Calabro , HCPC

Laura Calabro is an HCPC-registered therapist who brings international experience to her clinical work. She has worked for four years within the NHS in the United Kingdom and spent nine years practising in Italy, supporting people through a range of emotional and relational challenges. Her practice focuses on concerns such as relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low motivation, self-esteem and confidence issues, and depression.

Laura approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she tailors conversations and treatment plans to fit individual needs and goals. She communicates openly about the therapeutic process and works collaboratively to identify practical steps that align with a client’s priorities.

The HCPC credential reflects registration with the Health and Care Professions Council, the UK body that registers certain health and care professionals. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel challenging, and Laura recognizes that beginning this process takes courage; she aims to offer steady support as clients start their work toward change.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Laura Calabro draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address emotional and trauma-related difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing unhelpful coping patterns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a trauma-focused method that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their ongoing impact. Psychodynamic therapy may also be used to explore recurring patterns and early relationship influences that shape thoughts and feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Laura works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She explains options, checks in about progress, and adjusts the plan together with each person.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives or to work with therapists from different locations. Licensed professionals and therapists can deliver effective support through these formats, helping clients access consistent care without sacrificing the relational aspects of therapy.
