Laura Horn

I’m a warm and experienced therapist specialising in IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) two powerful, evidence-based approaches that help people process difficult memories, reduce emotional distress, and move forward with greater ease.

I work with young people and adults who may be struggling with trauma, anxiety, phobias, low self-esteem, or experiences that feel “stuck” those moments, memories, or feelings that just won’t seem to shift no matter how hard you try. You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out. Many of my clients simply know that something isn’t right, and that’s enough to begin.

My approach is gentle, collaborative, and always led by you. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, heard, and never judged. Whether you’re a teenager navigating a difficult time or an adult carrying something from your past, I’ll work with you at your own pace to help you feel more like yourself again.

IEMT and EMDR are remarkable tools because they work without requiring you to talk through every detail of what happened — which many people find a huge relief. Together, we can help your mind process what it hasn’t been able to on its own.

If you’re curious about whether this approach might be right for you, I’d love to hear from you.

I also provide therapeutic supervision to other therapists and coaches.

Over the course of my work with young people and adults, I have developed particular expertise in the following areas: Trauma & PTSD Whether you’ve experienced a single distressing event or a prolonged period of trauma, EMDR and IEMT are highly effective tools for helping your nervous system process what happened and reduce the emotional charge it still carries. You don’t need to relive everything, we work at a pace that feels manageable for you.

Complex Trauma & Childhood Adverse Experiences Many people carry the weight of difficult childhoods without fully realising how deeply those early experiences shape their adult lives. I work sensitively with clients who have experienced neglect, emotional, physical, or sexual abuse, or simply grew up in environments that didn’t feel safe or nurturing. Anxiety & Panic Attacks Anxiety can be exhausting and all-consuming. I help clients understand what’s driving their anxiety beneath the surface and use targeted techniques to reduce its grip so you can start living more freely again.

Phobias & Fears Phobias can feel embarrassing or irrational, but they are incredibly common and very treatable. IEMT in particular can produce fast, lasting results for a wide range of phobias and fear responses. Low Self-Esteem & Negative Self-Belief The stories we tell ourselves about who we are can be the hardest things to shift. I work with clients to identify and reprocess the root experiences behind deeply held negative beliefs — helping you build a more compassionate and accurate sense of yourself.

Depression often has layers, and beneath them, unprocessed experiences that keep pulling people down. I work to address those underlying drivers rather than just managing symptoms, supporting clients towards genuine, lasting relief. Grief & Loss Grief doesn’t follow a tidy path, and it isn’t always about bereavement. Loss of a relationship, identity, health, or a life you expected can be just as profound.

I offer a gentle, non-pressured space to process grief in all its forms. Relationship Difficulties Our earliest relationships shape how we connect with others throughout life. I help clients explore patterns in their relationships, heal attachment wounds, and develop healthier ways of relating to the people around them. Performance & Confidence Whether it’s exam anxiety, fear of public speaking, sports performance, or workplace confidence, I work with clients to clear the mental blocks holding them back and unlock more of their natural potential. Neurodivergent Clients I warmly welcome clients who are autistic, ADHD, or otherwise neurodivergent. I understand that neurodivergent individuals often experience the world more intensely, may have faced misunderstanding or masking for much of their lives, and can carry significant emotional and psychological burdens as a result. My approach is flexible, non-judgmental, and adapted to suit how your mind works, not the other way around.

Approach At the heart of my practice is a simple belief: that people are capable of profound change when they feel truly safe and supported. My role isn’t to tell you what to do it’s to walk alongside you as you find your own way through. I draw primarily on IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing), both of which are well-researched, effective approaches for helping the mind and body process experiences that have become “stuck.” These methods can bring about meaningful shifts, often more quickly than traditional talking therapy alone and without needing to revisit every painful detail of what you’ve been through.

Alongside these, I integrate other therapeutic modalities to ensure my work is tailored to you as an individual. No two people are the same, and I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Depending on what you need, I may draw on additional techniques to support your healing, build resilience, and help you develop a healthier relationship with yourself. I work with young people and adults across a wide range of concerns, including trauma and PTSD, anxiety and stress, phobias, and difficulties with self-esteem and identity. Whether something happened recently or years ago, and whether you can name it clearly or just know something feels off there is space for it here. Sessions are available both online and in-person, giving you the flexibility to access support in whatever way works best for your life. I aim to make the process as straightforward and comfortable as possible from the very first contact. Whatever has brought you here, I’m glad you’re taking this step
