about the Therapist

Laura Northey

(SHe/Her)

At the heart of Laura's work is a deep belief in the healing power of relationship. She helps clients identify and transform the negative cycles that show up in their most important relationships - including the ones they have with themselves. 
In both couples and individual therapy, Laura employs emotionally-focused therapy, or EFT -- a therapeutic approach aimed at helping you understand the emotional roots of your behavioural and relational patterns. EFT is an evidence-based, attachment-informed approach that works by going beneath behaviour to the underlying emotional experience, creating the conditions for lasting, meaningful change. Whether working with individuals navigating attachment wounds, neurodivergence, anxiety and depression, or with couples caught in painful cycles of disconnection, Laura uses EFT to foster deeper understanding, emotional safety, and genuine connection. Laura's practice is also shaped by her passion for ecopsychology and nature-based approaches. She understands the self as not isolated, but embedded in relationship: with others, with the body, and with the living world. She is proudly anti-oppressive, trauma-informed, and has experience working with LGBTQ2A+ and racialized clients.

Laura is a Registered Psychotherapist with 4 years of clinical experience, and a Member of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario, offering individual, couples, and group therapy in Guelph and online.
