Louisa North offers practical, person-centred counselling that focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She is a BACP counsellor with five years of experience. Louisa aims to make conversations straightforward and compassionate so people feel able to start talking about what matters.

She supports people dealing with grief and loss and those facing eating difficulties. She also helps with parenting concerns and with depression. Louisa works with issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation.

Background and approach

Sessions are a place to speak openly without fear of judgement. Louisa encourages people to set small, achievable goals and to explore what changes might help them feel better. She focuses on practical steps as well as understanding the feelings behind behaviour.

Her approach is collaborative. She listens first, then suggests ways to try new behaviours or different ways of thinking. That might include looking at relationship patterns, building self-compassion, or working through painful memories at a pace that feels manageable.

Louisa accepts international clients and conducts work in English. People who are unsure what to expect are invited to reach out and begin the matching process through the platform to see if her style feels like a good fit.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling

Louisa draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to make talking therapy clear and practical. One common approach focuses on recognising and gently changing unhelpful thoughts to reduce anxiety and low mood; this helps with worry, social anxiety and mood concerns. Another approach looks at relationships and attachment - it helps people understand patterns that affect how they connect and respond to others, useful for abandonment worries and attachment issues.

Finding the right way of working is part of therapy. The therapist will explore what matters most to the person and agree together which methods to try. This is a collaborative process that can be reviewed as progress is made and goals change.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time and allow people to meet from different places, which suits those juggling work, parenting or other commitments. If you need clarity about the exact session formats available, please confirm those options when booking so arrangements match your needs.
