Laura Seward - MBACP Psychotherapy and Breathwork
Laura Seward MBACP (Snr Accred) Clinical Supervision for therapists, Psychotherapy and Biodynamic Breathwork (BBTRS) for Adults, Children and Young People
My name is Laura (She/ Her) and I am a humanistic/ relational/ integrative psychotherapist, play therapist and clinical supervisor with 20+ years experience.

My core training is person-centred therapy though I draw from numerous theories including neuroscience, existentialism, mindfulness, somatic therapy and breath work. I moved to the UK as a teen, and my experience navigating CAMHS and other mental health services, as well as my personal healing process, largely informs the way I work.

Therapy may be about unravelling and healing from such experiences. The kind of therapeutic relationship and approach required is different for each person and can change with time, so openness, curiousity and collaboration are at the heart of my practice, the aim being to establish sensory, social, emotional and relational safety.
Sessions can be online (International or UK) or walk and talk in Sheffield-based (near M1): sessions are usually weekly, but frequency and duration can also be individually tailored. I offer a free 20-30 minute initial phone call (or text/ email chat) to discuss options, ask questions and generally get a sense of our connection. Session costs from £75…
