More about Louise

Hello, my name is Louise, and I am a fully qualified, Diploma Level 4, therapeutic counsellor and psychotherapist. I am based just outside of London and run my own private practice as a private therapeutic integrative counsellor offering both psychodynamic and person centred therapy.
I see clients via telephone and video sessions, and I am available for therapy sessions daytime, evening and Saturday daytime. I see clients with a wide range of mental health and physical health problems and also receive referrals from existing clients. Please see attached listings to view my range of areas I am experienced to work with.
I also work for PAM Assist UK as an Associate EAP telephone counsellor and Validium Health Heroes UK, which works in conjunction with my private practice. I started my journey in counselling in a work placement with St Christopher’s hospice as a bereavement support volunteer and I do still offer my help and services to St Christopher’s hospice. I love my role as therapeutic counsellor and psychotherapist and feel passionately about helping others work through their struggles and overcome their challenges to move forwards in their life, feeling empowered and able to embrace their journey.
I feel it is imperative to build a strong, trusting, therapeutic relationship as this supports our therapy together to be warm, comfortable and successful. I very much look forward to working with you,

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
