About me

My name is Louise and I am a fully qualified counsellor with several years’ experience of counselling adults.  I have a particular passion for supporting young women, but welcome everyone, aged 18+.

I came to counselling after significant changes in my own life, and this was when I experienced the value of counselling for the first time. I found a safe space, just for me, where I could talk through what was happening and where my feelings could be contained and supported. The counselling I received at that time was invaluable in helping me to move forward to a happier, more fulfilled life. This experience has helped influence how I now work with clients.
