About Louisa

Louisa North works with people on stress, anxiety, grief and loss, eating difficulties, parenting concerns and depression using evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and has five years of clinical experience.

She meets people who are struggling with feelings of abandonment, attachment problems, guilt or shame, isolation and social anxiety. Louisa also supports those facing questions about life purpose, midlife transitions and wider mood difficulties. Sessions focus on talking through current problems and building practical ways to manage overwhelming feelings.

Her way of working is straightforward and practical. Louisa listens to what is most urgent and helps set small, achievable steps to reduce distress. She uses approaches that have research support and adapts them to each person’s concerns.

In early sessions she will ask about recent difficulties and what has helped or hindered in the past. From there she and the client agree goals and review progress at regular points. The work can include developing new strategies for coping with anxiety or changing unhelpful patterns around food and mood.

Louisa offers therapeutic support in English and can work with people located outside the United Kingdom. To start, clients complete a short online matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Evidence-based techniques focus on changing patterns that keep problems going and on building skills to manage difficult feelings. For example, cognitive approaches look at unhelpful thinking and teach people ways to test and reframe thoughts to reduce anxiety and low mood. Behavioural methods focus on changing routines and activities, which can help with depression, eating difficulties and social avoidance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. This happens collaboratively so the plan can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.

Session format details are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into daily life, for example cutting out travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy week, or reducing the need to be on camera if that helps someone engage. Many people find remote counselling helps maintain continuity when schedules change, but check the available formats with the service when arranging sessions.
