About Louisa

Louisa Cibrian works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, grief and low mood, and she uses approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centred therapy and psychodynamic ideas. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience.

Louisa aims to help people increase self-awareness and rebuild confidence after relationship breakdowns. She supports people who struggle with addictive behaviours by looking at root causes and practical coping strategies. She also offers time to talk through bereavement and the mixed feelings that can come with loss.

Her approach is based on the view that childhood experiences can shape adult patterns. She uses client-centred ways of working to listen and reflect, and draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at underlying themes. Attachment-based methods are used to consider how close relationships affect current difficulties.

Sessions are paced to each person, with space to explore difficult memories and to try out new ways of coping. Louisa says people bring strengths they can build on, and she supports that process through discussion and practical steps. She works collaboratively to help people notice small changes that matter in everyday life.

She is comfortable discussing a range of issues from intimacy and self-esteem to sleep and parenting concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients.

How her approaches work for online counselling

Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how they affect current feelings and reactions; this can help with relationship strains, intimacy issues and trust. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflection, giving people a chance to talk through what matters and build confidence in their own decisions. Psychodynamic ideas help bring longer-standing patterns into view by considering how past experiences influence present behaviour.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about their goals, preferences and needs, and then agree together which methods to use. This is a collaborative process that can change as therapy progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family life, avoid travel and keep appointments in a familiar setting. They can also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited or audio-only options if video is difficult, depending on what the counsellor offers.
