About Louise

Louise Phillipson is a counsellor who aims to make the first step easier for people feeling overwhelmed. She writes with warmth and plain language, and she focuses on building a respectful relationship where clients can talk about what matters to them.

Louise says she is kind, non-judgemental and relatable, and she uses those qualities to help people take action toward a more fulfilling life. She has three years of professional experience and holds NCPS.

Background and approach

Louise works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, intimacy-related difficulties, grief, addictions and eating or sleeping problems. She also supports people facing career questions, compassion fatigue, ADHD and the particular strains that first responders or those involved in hospice and end-of-life care can face.

In sessions she focuses on clear, practical conversation rather than jargon. She listens first, helps people name what is happening, and then talks through manageable steps to try between meetings. Many sessions include checking how coping strategies are going and adjusting plans if needed.

Louise offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging to fit different needs. International clients can work with her in English. She describes therapy as a collaborative process where small changes add up over time.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a time that suits them. Louise uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary with location and therapist availability.

Approaches for online therapy and how they help

Simple, evidence-based approaches are used in Louise's online work. One approach focuses on talking through current patterns and practical coping techniques to reduce stress and anxiety; this helps people get immediate tools for day-to-day challenges. Another approach looks at past distress and trauma in a paced way, helping people make sense of painful memories and how they affect life now. These ways of working are aimed at clearer thinking, steadier mood and better day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Louise treats the choice as a joint process and will discuss what feels most useful for each person. She will adapt plans as goals change and as different techniques are tried and reviewed together.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls suit longer conversations and a face-to-face feel. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or wearing a camera is difficult. Live chat and messaging let people check in quickly or write when they prefer not to speak. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
