About Louise
Counsellor (BACP), 7 years' experience. Louise Wood helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, addictions and related concerns. She works from approaches including Client-Centred, Existential and Psychodynamic therapies and speaks English. Sessions are provided in the United Kingdom and international clients are not accepted.
Louise sees people who are coping with life changes, grief, anger, compassion fatigue and ADHD. She also supports those facing relationship issues, LGBT-related concerns, and problems linked to abandonment or attachment. Other areas she addresses include substance addiction, domestic violence, dissociation and the impact of disasters.
Her way of working starts from the view that clients know their own stories and strengths. She listens for what the person brings and helps them make practical sense of it. Conversations look at current feelings and the past patterns that help explain them.
Client-Centred methods put the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. Psychodynamic ideas help identify recurring patterns and deeper emotional themes. Existential thinking focuses on meaning, choice and managing uncertainty.
Louise aims to help people take steps that feel manageable. Sessions tend to focus on what is happening now, what matters to the person, and small changes that can reduce distress. To start, clients follow the practice’s booking steps and complete a short questionnaire before a first session.

How her approaches shape remote sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening to the person’s experience and responding with reflective, non-directive conversation. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to clarify what matters to them. Psychodynamic Therapy looks for patterns that repeat across relationships and over time; it can be useful for people wanting to understand how past experiences affect current feelings and behaviour. Existential Therapy asks practical questions about choice, meaning and responsibility and can help when life changes create uncertainty or a sense of emptiness.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss the options and decide with the client which methods to try based on their needs, goals and preferences. That process is collaborative and can change as the person’s concerns evolve.
Practical benefits of working remotely should be confirmed before booking, as specific session formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If someone prefers a particular format, they should confirm the available session types during the matching and scheduling steps.
