About Louise

Louise Creswick is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress and anxiety. She also supports those dealing with grief, low self-esteem, life changes and work or relationship strains. Her style is warm and non-judgemental, aiming to put people at ease from the first conversation.

Louise works in a practical, person-focused way. She listens first, then uses tools suited to each person’s situation. Sessions may combine short exercises, reflective conversation and goal-focused planning.

Background and approach

The aim is to make small, helpful changes that fit day-to-day life. She draws on client-centred principles to prioritise the person’s own perspective and choices. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when unhelpful thoughts or patterns are getting in the way.

Mindfulness exercises are introduced to help with present-moment awareness and stress reduction. Her background includes five years working in therapeutic and mental health roles across different settings. That experience shapes a flexible approach that adapts to each person rather than following one fixed method.

Louise also offers coaching to support practical steps towards goals when that suits the person. Sessions can address a wide range of issues beyond anxiety and stress, such as family of origin concerns, attachment questions, fertility or fatherhood matters, trauma, panic and post-traumatic stress. Conversations are aimed at understanding what matters to the individual and finding manageable ways forward.

How Louise’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience. The therapist listens closely and reflects what matters to the individual, helping people make choices that feel right for them. This approach suits people who want a supportive space to talk through concerns and find their own direction.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can help with anxiety, panic and low mood. Mindfulness Therapy introduces short attention exercises to reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.

Finding the right blend of these approaches is part of the work. Louise will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That means sessions can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat or text-based messaging support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around work, family and travel commitments.
