About me

I am a humanistic counsellor working from my practice in Lee -On-The-Solent. I strive to offer a safe and welcoming environment and aim to work alongside my clients, exploring difficulties they may be having that may be stopping them from enjoying life to the full.

I have worked with children, adults and couples and can offer, face to face, telephone or skype counselling.

Please take a look at my website and if you have any questions I am always happy to answer them. Louise.

Experience

Prior to training as a counsellor, I worked for many years in an office environment. I also did voluntary work at the Samaritans which led to a desire to study counselling further.

I have worked in a number of professional settings including private practice and the NHS (patients and staff in a hospital environment). I have run group workshops for patients with terminal cancer using creative art therapies. I have undertaken voluntary work counselling family members of prisoners and have also facilitated group sessions for the same organisation.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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).

Further information

Counselling is a process unique to each of us. It provides a regular time and place to explore the difficulties you are experiencing and the associated emotional and mental state in a safe, supportive and dependable environment. My aim is to help you to understand your problem more clearly, feel in control of your life and find your own solution. It is an enormous step entering therapy, whether it is for the first time or not. There are many different approaches and research shows that what most influences the success of therapy is the quality of the relationship between the client and the therapist. Therefore the first and most important step in your recovery is finding the therapist who is right for you. It may be personal preference and what feels like a comfortable connection. if you have any questions please give me a call and I will do my best to answer them. Or alternatively, take a look at my website.
