Background and approach

When words are hard to find, she can suggest creative exercises to help express feelings differently. Louise works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, bipolar and depression. She also focuses on ADHD, anger, career strain and coping with life changes.

Additional areas she notices often help people are issues around attachment, abandonment, codependency and body image. Her approach is collaborative. Clients set goals and she helps break them down into manageable steps.

She aims to build emotional awareness, improve communication, and develop coping tools that fit daily life. Louise uses ideas from attachment-based and client-centred work alongside psychodynamic thinking and mindfulness practices. Louise holds BACP and NCPS credentials and has three years of professional experience.

She works with people across the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging, and are organised through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How online approaches shape therapeutic work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect present reactions. It helps people who struggle with trust, closeness or repeated conflict to notice patterns and try different ways of connecting. Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the session and focuses on being listened to without judgement. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of their feelings and choose their next steps. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and build calmer responses to stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try ways of working that fit each person. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as needs shift or new priorities emerge.

Online therapy offers practical choices for how to meet. Video calls let people use visual cues and hold a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit shorter check-ins, rapid emotional support or days when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on steady, ongoing progress.
