About Louise
Louise Davies welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, bereaved or uncertain about life changes. She introduces a calm, steady presence and offers time to talk things through without judgement. Louise uses everyday language and practical focus to help people find small, manageable ways forward.
She draws on four years of clinical experience and holds BACP registration, which she uses alongside a person-centred way of working. That means sessions focus on the person's concerns, their pace, and what matters most to them.
Background and approach
She also brings elements of attachment-based and psychodynamic thinking when it helps make sense of relationship patterns. Louise often explores how past experiences affect present feelings and relationships. Sometimes the work looks at memories and patterns, and other times it focuses on coping strategies for day-to-day life.
She aims to balance understanding with practical steps that can be tested between sessions. She has personal experience relevant to many of the issues people bring, and she lived in Israel for several years which supports her use of Hebrew alongside English. Louise is currently training to be a counselling supervisor and continues to develop her practice.
Sessions are delivered in a gentle, non-directive style. The goal is to build a trustworthy working relationship so people can explore loss, identity, intimacy, neurodiversity, stress, and career or family challenges at a comfortable pace. She encourages realistic goals and gradual change.

How Louise works online
Client-centred work puts the person at the heart of the session. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and follows the person's pace so they can find their own solutions and build self-understanding.
Psychodynamic ideas look at how past experiences influence present behaviour and emotions. This can be useful for people who want to make sense of recurring patterns or long-standing difficulties.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then try methods that match those aims. Clients and the therapist review how the work is going and adjust the focus together.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support people who want to access a therapist who speaks English or Hebrew across borders.
