About Louise
Louise Lant is a counsellor who brings a person-centred approach to her work. She qualified in the United Kingdom in 2017 and has eight years of practice experience. She aims to create a straightforward, respectful space where people can talk about what matters to them.
Her main focus includes stress, anxiety, family and parenting concerns, and building self-esteem. She also helps with communication problems, control issues, feelings of isolation, and finding life purpose.
Background and approach
She pays particular attention to issues many women face and to midlife transitions. Person-centred therapy underpins Louise's work, so she places the relationship at the centre of sessions. She listens without judgement and encourages clients to identify their own strengths and solutions.
She may also draw on ideas from solution-focused, compassion-focused, and cognitive behavioural approaches when these fit someone’s needs. Louise describes counselling as a collaborative process. She helps people notice resources they already have and supports practical steps towards change.
Her style is down-to-earth and respectful, aimed at helping people feel understood and clearer about their next steps. People who choose to work with Louise start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability. Sessions operate on a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, with fees that vary by location and availability.

What Louise works with
Everything Louise lists, in their own terms.
How Louise works online
Louise also uses ideas from solution-focused work. That involves setting small, practical goals and noticing what is already working. It is useful when someone wants clear steps and quicker, action-based progress. She may integrate compassion-focused techniques to build self-kindness and reduce self-criticism, which can aid recovery from prolonged stress or low self-worth.
Finding the best approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt strategies as sessions progress so the work matches the person's needs.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy schedules and reducing travel time. Online work can make it simpler to arrange shorter check-ins or sessions around work or family commitments. Please confirm the available session formats before booking, as specific options are set by the therapist and may vary.
