About Louise Bell

Louise Bell works with people who have experienced loss, emotional or physical abuse, narcissistic relationships, trauma, and divorce. She offers a personalised approach that recognises each person’s individual history and the ways past experiences continue to affect day-to-day life. Together with clients she explores what is still being carried from the past, identifies lingering burdens, and applies practical techniques to reduce the emotional weight of traumatic or negative events. This work supports people in managing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, and low self-confidence, helping them find relief and a clearer sense of purpose.

Louise also provides guidance on setting firm boundaries and practical strategies for responding to narcissistic behaviour, while acknowledging the potential consequences of those choices. She supports people who are grieving, offering help to navigate bereavement and find ways of coping after loss. In addition, she works with teenagers on emotional regulation, self-esteem, and relationships through the challenges of adolescence.

With three years of experience and membership of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - Louise creates a respectful, empathetic space where people can reflect, vent, cry, or simply be heard. She encourages seeking support as a constructive step toward self-care and personal growth, and she works alongside clients as they face life’s difficulties.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Louise draws on client-centered therapy to create a supportive space where people lead the pace of exploration and are listened to without judgement. This approach helps with building self-awareness, strengthening self-esteem, and improving relationships by focusing on the client’s own experience.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to explore how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours interact. CBT offers practical tools for managing anxiety, stress, and low mood by identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying out different responses.

Trauma-focused therapy is employed when past traumatic events continue to affect daily life. This approach helps process traumatic memories and reduce their ongoing impact, supporting recovery from abuse, post-traumatic stress, and other trauma-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is decided collaboratively. Louise works with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as things progress.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer practical flexibility, making it easier to fit therapy around work, family, or mobility needs. These options support consistent engagement and make it possible for people across the United Kingdom to access registered professionals and therapists without travel.
