About me
Hi, I'm Louise. I am BACP registered and I offer one to one sessions online and face to face.
With my experience as both a teacher and solicitor, I have a deep understanding of the unique stresses and burnout risks within the workplace. This background equips me to help lawyers and other professionals navigate these challenges effectively. Together, we can develop strategies to manage the intense pressures commonly faced in such demanding environments.
Additionally, I offer support for parenting challenges, addressing feelings of isolation and frustration that can accompany the arrival of a new family member. I have a special interest in helping women who are pregnant or struggling in the post-natal period.
With experience working in a hospice, I am well-prepared to support individuals affected by bereavement, helping them navigate their grief and gently work towards finding a new normal.
My approach is integrative, with person-centred focus, ensuring that each client's needs and preferences are at the heart of our work together.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
