About Louise

Louise Guidon is a person-centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and brings four years of professional experience to her work. Louise aims to offer a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk honestly about what is worrying them.

Louise uses person-centred principles to focus on what each person brings to sessions. She listens closely and reflects back what she hears.

Background and approach

This helps people to make sense of their thoughts and feelings and to find their own next steps. Her experience includes work in local counselling agencies and as a college counsellor. She has also provided wellbeing support for children, young people and parents through a national charity.

Before training as a counsellor she supported adults with housing and mental health needs. Louise works with a broad range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and family issues, identity and LGBT matters, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges and sleep difficulties. She also supports people facing career changes, compassion fatigue and neurodiverse concerns such as ADHD and autism.

In sessions she focuses on building trust and understanding. Conversations are straightforward and paced to each person. The aim is to help people feel seen, to reduce overwhelming feelings, and to explore practical ways forward.

To begin, she guides clients through a short matching process and then arranges sessions at times that suit them. Sessions are offered through a range of online formats and by phone to fit different needs.

Ways of working Louise names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Person-centred care and online options

Client-Centred Therapy centres on respectful, non-directive listening. The counsellor reflects back what they hear and supports the person to explore feelings and choices. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, relationship strains, grief and for people processing trauma and abuse.

Because sessions are driven by the person’s concerns, the therapist will work collaboratively to find the right way of working. Together they discuss goals, try different ways of meeting and adjust the approach as needs change. Finding the best fit is treated as an ongoing conversation rather than a one-time decision.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and build rapport, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins, written reflection or people who prefer not to use a camera. These options aim to make counselling more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
