Welcome to London Counselling and Consultancy - Supporting individuals, families, and organisations to overcome trauma, addictions, and mental health challenges.

Founded by Laura Smart, LCC offers compassionate, evidence-based support through counselling, therapy, training, and consultancy services. Whether you're looking for personal healing or professional guidance, our trauma-informed approach puts your well-being first.

I’m Laura Smart, a qualified Trauma-Informed Practitioner and experienced counsellor. I understand how trauma shapes mental health and often leads to adaptive behaviours, addictions, stress, and unhealthy behaviours and coping patterns. I offer compassionate, evidence-based care in a safe, non-judgmental space for healing and personal growth.

After years of working in the charity sector, managing teams and services, creating training programmes, and supporting vulnerable groups, I founded London Counselling and Consultancy to align my professional and lived experience with my passion: helping people recover from trauma, addictions, and poor mental health. My services include

• Trauma-informed  counselling for individuals, couples and groups

• Addiction consultancy and referral pathway support - assisting individuals and families

• Trauma-informed training, courses and workshops

• Creating bespoke therapeutic and psychoeducational training, courses, workshops and resources for organisations and practitioners.

I also guide individuals and families through the treatment journey, including rehab planning, referral, and ongoing aftercare support, because long-term recovery needs structure, connection, and care. I am passionate about people's emotional well-being and recovery and breaking down the stigma attached to mental health, addictions and trauma.
