Louise Creswick
Practical counselling for stress and life change
About Louise
Louise Creswick helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression and major life changes. She is a BACP counsellor and speaks plainly in sessions to make talking easier. Louise offers a warm and non-judgemental space where people can work through painful feelings and practical problems.
She uses a mix of approaches so each session focuses on what matters most to the person in front of her.
Background and approach
That might include practical tools to manage panic or anxiety, ways to understand difficult thoughts, or simple mindfulness practices to calm racing feelings. Sessions are shaped around the person's needs and goals rather than following a fixed script.
Louise also supports people dealing with relationship strain, family-of-origin issues, adoption and foster care questions, fertility and fatherhood concerns, and the impact of trauma or abuse. She works with matters such as guilt, shame, forgiveness, isolation and finding a clearer sense of purpose. Her background includes five years in therapeutic and mental health roles where she combined counselling and coaching skills.
Louise brings that practical experience into online work, matching methods to the moment and adjusting pace as needed. People who choose her can expect straightforward conversation, clear coping strategies and gentle guidance towards achievable change. She invites clients to set the agenda and to test what helps between sessions.

Approaches that guide online work
Client-Centred Therapy is about listening and making space for the person's experience. The therapist follows the person's lead, helps them express feelings, and supports them to find their own solutions. This approach can help when someone needs acceptance and a clearer sense of direction.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It often includes simple exercises people can try between sessions and can be useful for anxiety, panic and low mood. Mindfulness Therapy encourages short, focused practices to reduce stress and build calm attention in everyday moments.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Louise will discuss goals and preferences and suggest methods to try. Decisions are collaborative and can change as needs shift during therapy.
Online sessions are offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or low bandwidth, and text-based options can help when someone prefers to write or needs flexible timing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on practical progress.
