Laura Gregory
- Position :Therapist
Laura is a therapist at Working Conversations and is currently working on her Level 3 counselling certificate, having completed her Level 2 and her Master’s in Psychology. Laura’s background is in forensic science and pharmaceuticals, her career change came when she was referred to Steve for therapeutic input after a postnatal breakdown. Laura was particularly interested in the forward-thinking nature of Solution focused practice and began volunteering in her spare time and undertaking necessary training. Soon after, she began her master’s and left pharmaceuticals behind with a view to becoming a BACP accredited therapist. What she loves about her work is the people who walk through the door and the life experiences she has the honour of listening to. She loves the moment when a particular question hits home and there is that “lightbulb” expression on someone’s face as they begin to realise what they want is within grasp.
Laura is also the clinical director of the trauma-based service Traumaticus, volunteers at a local mental health group and participates in the writing and delivery of the training packages WCG offers. She also launched the free service Church Chats in 2023 in collaboration with Christ Church Higher Bebington which offers face-to-face sessions for people in Bebington and surrounding areas.
