How Louise’s approaches work online
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to focus on practical change. One common way is short-term talking work that helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop new coping strategies; this can help with anxiety, panic attacks and low mood. Another approach involves trauma-informed conversations that allow for paced processing of difficult memories while building safety and self-compassion; this is useful for post-traumatic stress and recovery after sexual assault or abuse.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Louise will listen to your goals and preferences, explain options in simple terms, and agree next steps together. She adapts methods to suit how you prefer to work and what you most need to focus on at the time.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are close to face-to-face and useful for deeper conversations. Phone sessions or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. Text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions and can fit into busy days. Together these formats make it easier to access consistent support while fitting therapy around work, family and daily life.
