Louise Davies, BACP

Louise Davies welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by change, loss, or difficult relationships. She is a calm presence for those coping with anxiety, stress, grief, identity questions, neurodiversity concerns and other life challenges. Louise presents herself as someone who will listen and work alongside you as you make sense of things.

Louise holds BACP, the membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She trained as a person-centred counsellor and has four years of practice experience. She also has lived experience of many of the issues she supports, and speaks some Hebrew after living in Israel for several years.

In sessions she focuses on building a trusting connection and following what matters most to the client. That can mean talking about recent events, looking back at earlier relationships to understand current patterns, or planning practical steps to manage day-to-day difficulties. The work is collaborative and paced to suit each person.

Louise works with a wide range of concerns including relationships, parenting strain, sleep problems, sexual intimacy issues, trauma, grief, career stress and neurodiversity questions such as ADHD or autism. She also supports people facing long-term illness, caregiving burdens, and major life transitions.

If you prefer, sessions can include reflection on attachment patterns and inner conflict alongside a person-centred focus on what you need now. She is training to be a counselling supervisor and aims to offer a warm, non-judgemental space to help you move forward.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Louise uses person-centred methods, attachment-based ideas and psychodynamic thinking in her work. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening closely, reflecting what you say and following your priorities to help you feel understood and seen. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people change unhelpful ways of relating. Psychodynamic ideas help bring unconscious patterns into awareness so you can make different choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Louise will work with each person to decide which mix of listening, exploring past influences and practical planning feels most useful. That choice is collaborative and may shift over time as things change.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm current session options before booking. Louise aims to help people build understanding and coping strategies that can be used in everyday life, whether sessions are remote or arranged another way.
