Louise Devereux meets people who are worn down by stress, loss or relationship strain. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can say what matters to them and start to untangle difficult feelings. Louise is based in the United Kingdom and is a BACP member, which stands for the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists.

Louise uses a client-centred approach. That means conversations focus on the person in front of her, not a set programme.

Background and approach

She listens without rushing and reflects back what she hears so clients can make sense of painful thoughts and moods. People have come to Louise for help with bereavement and grief, relationship problems, low self-esteem and confidence, and general anxiety or stress. She also supports those facing life changes such as separation, career shifts or becoming a parent.

Her practice includes attention to workplace strains, caregiver stress and feelings of isolation. Sessions are conversational and paced to the client. Louise helps people notice patterns, try small changes, and build clearer ways to cope.

She encourages practical steps alongside talking so progress can be measured in everyday life. With three years of experience, Louise aims to make therapy straightforward and useful. She invites people to take the first step, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a way of meeting that suits them.

How client-centred therapy works online

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening deeply, reflecting what a person says, and supporting them to find their own answers. In practice this means the therapist follows the client's concerns, helps them name feelings, and encourages small changes that fit their life. This approach is often helpful for anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and relationship stress.

Louise uses a warm, listening style and will work with each person to decide what method suits them best. Choosing the right approach is a joint process - the therapist will ask about goals, preferences and practical needs, and then adapt sessions over time as those needs change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual connection helps understanding, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and suit short check-ins. Live chat and messaging can fit into a busy day and allow reflection between messages. These options make therapy more flexible, letting people fit sessions around work, childcare or other commitments.
