About Louise

Louise Davies welcomes people who are feeling stuck by life changes, relationship problems, grief or rising anxiety. She introduces a calm, steady presence and aims to help people talk through what is happening now. Louise notes she can empathise with those navigating neurodiversity or mid-life transitions and with people from Jewish and Israeli cultural backgrounds who may prefer to work in English or Hebrew.

She draws on four years of practice and works from a person-centred perspective, focusing on building a trusting connection. That relationship is used to gently look at patterns that affect current feelings and choices. Sessions can include looking at past events when that helps make sense of present worries.

Louise also uses attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships shape current bonds and reactions. She may bring psychodynamic thinking into sessions to help make sense of deeper feelings and recurring themes. Together these approaches give room for emotional processing and practical ways forward.

Her BACP credential is shown with its full name as the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she is based in the United Kingdom. She mentions lived experience of several of the concerns she works with, and she is training to become a counselling supervisor.

People can expect a gentle, non-judgemental tone and a collaborative pace. Louise aims to walk alongside clients while they name their goals and try out changes that fit their daily lives.

How her approaches shape online work

Louise uses person-centred ideas to focus on the relationship in the room, aiming to make clients feel heard and understood. This approach helps when people are processing grief, anxiety, or major life changes by keeping the pace set by the client.

Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds affect current relationships and reactions. It can be useful for those struggling with intimacy, communication problems or patterns of feeling abandoned.

Psychodynamic thinking is used to notice repeating themes and hidden feelings that influence behaviour. It can support people who want to understand why certain problems keep returning and to begin changing long-standing patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Louise will collaborate with each person to decide what feels most helpful based on their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress develops.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote work helps maintain continuity when schedules or locations change.
