I began working with Laura Pickering after experiencing a traumatic event that turned my world upside down. I was overwhelmed with grief and struggling to find a way forward. Working with Laura has truly been life-changing. From our very first session, she created a safe, compassionate space where I could process my emotions without judgment. She helped me understand that healing isn’t about forgetting, but about learning how to carry love and loss together.
Through her guidance, I’ve found peace with a reality I once thought unbearable. Her empathy, insight, and gentle approach helped me reconnect with myself, and I now feel more grounded and emotionally resilient than I ever imagined possible.
If you're going through something heavy and need someone to walk beside you with true care and expertise, I can’t recommend Laura enough. I’m deeply grateful for the support she’s given me during the hardest time of my life.

I have had the pleasure of meeting Katrina Brown from Words of Hope and she is very welcoming, and heart felt. I have been able to have some laughs through some of the tears while we are working through my sessions and I would 100% recommend Katrina at Words of Hope Counselling! I have not felt like I'm on an island alone and she has ensured my feelings what ever they are at the time are justifiable. I continue to look forward to our sessions.
