Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Louise draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns - this approach helps people understand connection, security, and how attachment issues affect relationships and emotional responses. Client-Centred Therapy is used to create a non-judgmental, empathetic space where the client leads the pace and focus of sessions - this approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem, and personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and to develop strategies for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Louise works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods feel most useful given their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the focus as therapy progresses.
Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to access support from different locations. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, a range of communication styles to suit individual comfort levels, and practical accessibility for clients who cannot attend in person. Registered professionals and therapists can adapt each format to provide meaningful, goal-focused work.
