About Louise

Counsellor Louise Fielder is a BACP-registered counsellor with three years' practice experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and depression, and other concerns listed in her profile. Louise uses an integrated approach that brings together person-centred ideas with practical, goal-focused techniques.

Louise keeps sessions straightforward. She listens, helps people name what they are feeling, and looks at small steps that can make day-to-day life easier. She also offers ways to manage intense emotions and to plan responses to distressing memories or thoughts.

Her work covers a wide range of issues including addiction, ADHD, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also engages with topics such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, caregiving strain, chronic illness, and body image.

Clinically she combines Client-Centred Therapy with Solution-Focused and Trauma-Focused approaches. That means she balances listening and understanding with practical strategies and focused work on traumatic memories when needed. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy are also part of her toolkit and may inform how she and a client plan sessions.

Sessions are described as conversational and practical. Louise asks about goals and works with each person to decide what to try next. She asks people to use the service's booking path to pick session options and start with a short matching questionnaire before arranging a first appointment.

Therapeutic approaches and online counselling

Louise draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy alongside Trauma-Focused work. Client-Centred Therapy involves listening closely to what a person says and reflecting it back to help them make sense of feelings; it is useful when someone needs support to talk through confusion or strong emotions. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and what a person wants to change; it suits people looking for short-term goals and clear actions. Trauma-Focused work looks directly at the effects of traumatic events and uses structured methods to reduce distressing remembering and avoidance.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Louise will discuss options with each person and decide together what to try first. She adapts the balance of listening, practical tasks and trauma-focused techniques to match a person’s needs and preferences.

The biography refers to phone, online and chat ways of working, but current session options should be confirmed before booking. Online or phone sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins, or avoid travel time. The process for starting is the same: use the site matching questionnaire to outline needs and then arrange the first appointment with the counsellor.
