Specialisms

Dr Laura Brennan is a sensitive, inclusive and culturally responsive clinician who prides herself on offering high-quality services to children, young people, their families and the wider professional network.

A specialist across childhood and adolescence, Laura works with young people aged 0–25, with particular expertise in areas such as loss, grief, emotional needs, learning difficulties and neurodevelopmental diagnoses. She is well-placed to support children, young people and their families to make sense of, process, and adapt following experiences of trauma.

Laura is experienced in supporting children and young people to develop emotional literacy, regulation skills and social communication abilities. She offers a supportive, containing and creative therapeutic space where individuals can explore, understand and reflect on their experiences. Laura recognises the importance of systemic working and the need for the team around the child to feel confident and equipped to enable progress. To this end, she provides sessions and training for families and professionals to share skills and align approaches.
