About Me
Hi, I'm Laura Haywood, certified life coach, former therapist, and someone who genuinely believes that feeling better is something important you deserve to work towards.
I spent 10 years living in the US, training and working as a coach, mentor, and facilitator, building nearly a decade of experience working with women who looked fine on the outside but who were struggling inside. In late 2025, I moved back to the UK, and brought all my experience with me.
Today, I work online with women across the US & UK. I blend my therapy background with ICF PCC certified coaching to offer something a little different: the emotional depth of a therapist, with the forward-focused energy of an experienced coach.
I'm not here to hand you a generic plan. I'm here to create a trusting, supportive & challenging space for you to think clearly, be honest about where you are, and figure out where you actually want to go. I believe the power of human connection & realness can create this space for you.
When I'm not coaching, I'll be out in nature, drinking too much tea, or walking my two beautiful greyhounds.
Rooted in therapeutic insight. Powered by coaching. Focused on you.

Testimonials/Reviews
"I had such a wonderful experience with Laura! After years of working with only a therapist, it was such a breath of fresh air finding Laura and being able to take what I’ve learned in therapy and apply that knowledge to making tangible action towards my future. While working with Laura I made a big career transition that opened the door for me to resolve a lot of my anxiety, create new boundaries, bring color and joy back into my life and begin to build something new. Laura is kind, honest and intentional with her approach and has been such a gift! If you are considering a life coach to help you through your journey, Laura is the best!" - SJ
