About Louise

Louise Creswick helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and major life changes. She also supports people facing trauma, relationship difficulties, anger, career decisions and feelings of emptiness. Louise is named up front so it’s clear who you will be reading about.

She uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people sort out what matters most. Sessions are led by the client’s needs and aim to build small, useful steps.

Background and approach

The tone is warm and non-judgemental so people can speak honestly about hard things. Louise blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness practices. That means she listens first, helps you spot unhelpful thinking patterns, and offers simple mindfulness exercises to reduce stress.

She adapts the mix depending on what the person wants to work on in each session. Her background includes five years working in therapeutic and mental health roles across the United Kingdom. She lists registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

This informs how she approaches ethics and professional practice. Typical concerns she has supported include adoption and foster care matters, attachment issues, fatherhood concerns, fertility questions and family of origin topics. She also works with people dealing with panic, post-traumatic stress, infidelity, guilt or shame and career-related stress.

Sessions can take different practical forms such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. People begin by completing a short questionnaire so sessions can be matched to their situation and goals.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The counsellor follows your lead and helps you make sense of your experience without judgement, which can be useful for relationship worries, grief and self-esteem work.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thought patterns and behaviours that keep distress going. It uses practical exercises and short experiments to reduce anxiety, panic and low mood by changing how you think and act.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and promote calm. These short exercises can help with panic attacks, racing thoughts and coping with overwhelming feelings.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk with you about your goals and preferences and together you will try methods that fit your needs. That way the work can change over time as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone works well if bandwidth is limited, and messaging can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options aim to help people fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
