Laura Keyte, MA, DHIP, Psychotherapy in Bath
Welcome, and thank you for visiting my website.
Experienced Psychotherapist in Bath, Somerset
We can all experience those dark moments, months or even years when, even though, outwardly, we may be functioning well, inside all is bleak. We think of ourselves as mad, bad, sad or all three of these, and it seems impossible that this will ever change. Therapy at this time can make a difference. It can help us to see ourselves and the world with new eyes and help us to value what is good in ourselves (and in the world).
Often our greatest difficulties and anxieties arise through relationships, psychotherapy helps to identify how we relate to others and to ourselves. It can create an openness to relating in different and more fruitful ways, externally and internally. Often we are our own harshest critics and therapy can help us to recognise our strengths and talents, as well as helping us to see ourselves with compassion and kindness.
Many people can find that psychotherapy can be transformative, for some it feels like the first time anyone has truly listened to them and understood who they are, for many it is the first time they themselves discover who they are, and like what they find!

My location
I practice from The Abbey Practice, 15A Cheap Street, Bath BA1 1NA in central Bath where I am a founder member and one of a group of qualified and experienced practitioners.

I have a second practice, George Street Therapy Rooms, and set of rooms on the 2nd floor, 2 Prince’s Buildings, George Street, Bath BA1 2ED. These rooms are available to other practitioners, please email for more information.
Fees & availability
My working hours are 9.00am - 5.00pm, Monday to Thursday.
The initial session: The purpose of the initial session is to help you to clarify what brings you to psychotherapy and what you hope to get from it. It also gives us both the opportunity to see if my experience and style of working matches what you need at this time. Often just clarifying and talking about your specific issues in an initial session can bring an enormous sense of relief and can release much needed energy.
My fees are £70 per 50 minute session. Sessions can be weekly or twice weekly, depending on your preference, need and circumstances.
