Hello, I’m Laura Dannequin, a therapeutic helper and avid learner and explorer of all things bodymind, neurobiology and somatics.

As a therapist I work from an attachment lens and weave in Cognitive Hypnotherapy, Somatic attunement, attachment re-patterning, parts work, EMDR, PSYCH-K.

I work with people in the short, medium and longer term. This depends on what you are wanting to explore and where we are starting from.
