Laurisse Comparini – Counsellor & Psychotherapist

I work with an integrative approach, which means I am trained in three different types of therapy: person-centred, cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic. Which methods are used in the sessions is dependent on you. My approach is to work together authentically and collaboratively with you, listening to your unique and wonderful stories. I’ve helped people from all walks of life navigate issues like anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions and personal relationships.

Reaching out for help can be hard, so I would like to commend you on taking this first step to look into different therapists and try to find the right fit. I wish you all the luck in finding the right person to support you through this journey, and hope to hear from you soon if you think that could be me.

My name is Reese, and I have been working in the mental health sector for a number of years. However, my first career was in something entirely different: Finance and Underwriting.

I have always had an analytical mind, something that helps me in my psychodynamic practice today, stripping back client’s problems to the ‘bare bones’ material in order for us to discuss deeply and find solutions together.

I first applied this analytical mind to mathematics, and still have a deep love for the mindfulness and meditative state that maths can bring (don’t worry I won’t be bringing any arithmetic exercises to our sessions!).

However, after a few years of being immersed in the financial world, I realised that it was the wrong application.

My passion is in people; how people experience the world, feel in the day to day, operate in their relationships and coping skills.

Therefore, I retrained as a therapist. I love the work that I do with clients, and hope that we can begin a great journey together!
