About Lou

Lou Clark helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, career uncertainty and low mood. She works with coaching-style goals as well as emotional concerns, using a collaborative, client-led approach. Lou is accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience.

Lou uses Client-Centred Therapy as her main framework. Sessions focus on what the client brings, and she follows the client’s pace and priorities. Conversations aim to increase self-understanding and improve everyday coping rather than ticking off steps from a fixed programme.

Her work covers communication problems, feelings of emptiness, jealousy, men's issues, midlife change, self-love and women's issues alongside broader relationship and career concerns. She offers a respectful, non-judgemental setting where people can talk through what matters to them and make practical changes over time.

Lou combines listening with reflective feedback and practical discussion. She involves clients in deciding how therapy proceeds and checks in about goals as therapy continues. This makes it possible to adapt the sessions if priorities shift or new challenges arise.

Sessions are offered to adults and are conducted by video for people aged 18 and over. Prospective clients are asked to follow the site booking steps to be matched and to arrange a first appointment.

How client-centred work can translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy centres on the client’s experience and the counsellor’s attentive listening. It involves open questions, reflective responses and helping the client clarify what matters most. This approach suits issues such as anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and questions about career direction.

The work is collaborative: the counsellor and client decide together what to focus on and how to measure progress. Lou will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adjust the way sessions run according to those conversations. That makes it possible to try different approaches and agree on what helps most.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments around work or family life and avoiding travel time. Video sessions are noted in her biography for adults aged 18 and over, so please confirm available session options before booking if you need a different format. Many people find online meetings helpful for regular check-ins and structured conversations, while shorter or quieter check-ins can suit busy days.
