About Louise

Louise Davies is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of practice experience. She focuses on life changes and questions about purpose as well as common concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, grief and career doubts. Sessions are offered in English and Hebrew and she accepts international clients.

Louise draws on person-centred ideas and psychodynamic thinking when working with people who feel stuck or unsure what comes next. She pays attention to how past experiences and attachment patterns can shape current relationships and choices. She also uses client-centred listening to help people name what matters and find practical ways to move forward.

Her background includes time living in Israel, and she brings that life experience into sessions when cultural or language context is relevant. Louise also has lived experience of grief, neurodiversity and parenting pressures, which she says informs her practical understanding of those issues. She is training to be a counselling supervisor.

In a typical session she listens first, then helps clients notice recurring patterns and decide on next steps. That might mean reflecting on earlier relationships to understand present reactions, or trying out small strategies to manage sleep, focus or work stress. Sessions can also cover intimacy, sexual culture or issues around ADHD and autism in everyday life.

People often contact her when a change has left them uncertain - a new diagnosis, bereavement, career crossroads or parenting strain. She works at a steady pace and uses straightforward conversation to help people identify what they want to address next.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Louise uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns influence feelings and interactions now; this approach can help when relationship trust, intimacy or recurring conflicts are the main concern. Client-centred work focuses on listening and helping people find their own answers; it supports people who need space to clarify values, choices or next steps. Psychodynamic thinking helps to bring into view repeated patterns and unconscious responses that affect work, parenting and partnerships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt methods as the client’s needs and goals become clearer. This is a collaborative process aimed at finding what helps with decision points, grief, career doubts or managing ADHD and anxiety in daily life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Online work also makes it possible to continue sessions while living abroad or balancing family and work commitments. Registered or accredited professionals will help plan the practical details so sessions suit everyday routines.
