About Louisa

Louisa Addo-Williams is a counsellor with 13 years of experience who uses practical, person-focused ways to help people move forward. She combines reflective listening with clear strategies so conversations lead to real change. Sessions are offered in English and Twi, and she is registered with BACP.

Louisa draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas and client-centred work to support people dealing with stress, anxiety and relationship challenges.

Background and approach

She also helps those facing grief, depression, trauma and issues around intimacy or self-esteem. Her style is straightforward and warm, with questions that encourage people to see patterns and try new responses. She offers both short-term work for people who want quick clarity and practical tools, and longer-term therapy for deeper exploration and recovery.

Practical concerns like sleep, eating, anger or coping with life changes are addressed alongside emotional themes. Louisa aims to help people apply what they learn between sessions so progress continues outside the room. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs and schedules.

She accepts international clients and can adapt timing across time zones. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

This helps pair people with the right approach and plan for the first session.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-driven action. It often suits those who want practical ways to manage anxiety, depression or life transitions while building purposeful habits.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape present patterns. It can help people understand why they react a certain way in relationships and learn different ways of connecting and trusting.

Client-Centred Therapy prioritises listening and a non-judgemental relationship. The therapist follows the person’s pace and reflections, which can be useful for building self-understanding and confidence.

Choosing an approach is part of the work. Louisa will discuss different methods with each person and decide together what fits best based on needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can change as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat and messaging suit brief check-ins or daytime support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and travel, and to keep momentum between sessions.
