Louise Davies, BACP

Louise Davies offers empathetic, person-centered support for people navigating relationship difficulties, bereavement, health or mental health concerns such as anxiety and depression, and the challenges that come with a new neurodiverse diagnosis. She also works with clients who are encountering mid-life transitions and the emotions those changes often bring.

Drawing on a mixture of professional training and lived experience, she aims to build a trusting connection that allows gentle exploration of what is happening now and why. Sessions may involve looking to the past to gain insight into present patterns, or focusing on practical strategies for the present and future. Her training is in Person-Centred Counselling, an approach that emphasizes respect for the client's perspective and the therapeutic relationship. Louise is also training to be a counselling supervisor.

Based in the United Kingdom and identifying as Jewish, she spent several years living in Israel and retains some Hebrew, which can help when cultural or language connections matter. She describes her way of working as warm, non-judgmental, and non-directive, offering to walk alongside people during difficult times. Louise holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which is a recognised professional body for counsellors in the UK.

Therapeutic approaches and accessible online support

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relational experiences shape current patterns in relationships and emotional responses. It can be helpful for people struggling with intimacy, abandonment issues, or repeated relationship difficulties because it explores the underlying connection needs that drive behaviour.

Client-Centred Therapy, also known as person-centred work, focuses on building a respectful, non-directive relationship in which the therapist offers empathy, acceptance, and support. This approach helps people gain clarity about their feelings and make choices that align with their values, useful for life transitions, low mood, or self-esteem concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Louise will work collaboratively with each person to identify the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Registered professionals and therapists often combine elements from different models to tailor work to the individual, and Louise adapts her approach in conversation with clients.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access support from different locations. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, the ability to choose the mode that feels most comfortable, and ongoing access to therapeutic conversations even when in-person sessions are not convenient.
