About Louise

Louise Vickers is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom who helps people facing issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, low self‑esteem and addiction. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma, parenting challenges, career stress and major life changes. Louise writes plainly and meets people where they are when they take the step to seek help.

She follows a person‑centred approach, shaping sessions around what each person needs. That means listening first and then working together to set goals that feel achievable. Motivational Interviewing is used to help people find their own reasons to change when motivation feels blocked.

Sessions are guided by the BACP Ethical Framework and a respectful, non‑judgemental stance. Louise aims to be practical and down to earth, helping people break issues into manageable steps. She will explore coping strategies for stress, emotional regulation for anger, and ways to rebuild confidence after loss or setback.

People who bring concerns about ADHD, bipolar difficulties, eating and food related issues, chronic illness or ageing will find these topics welcomed and explored. Communication problems, isolation and challenges linked to immigration or identity are within her focus areas too.

Louise has four years of experience and offers a supportive space to talk things through. To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Approaches that guide online support

Client‑Centred Therapy is built around listening and responding to the person in front of the counsellor. It focuses on understanding your perspective, offering empathy, and helping you find your own answers to problems such as low self‑esteem, relationship strain or grief.

Motivational Interviewing helps when change feels hard or you are unsure about taking the next step. It uses gentle questions and reflection to uncover your reasons for change and build small, practical steps towards goals like reducing substance use or improving routine and motivation.

Choosing the right way of working is part of the therapy process. Louise treats this as a collaborative task and will help you decide which approaches fit your needs, goals and preferences as you talk together about what you want to achieve.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing more flexible scheduling. If you want to know which session formats are available with this therapist, please confirm the current options before booking. Many people find shorter check‑ins useful for busy weeks, while longer sessions help tackle deeper issues in a single meeting.
