About Louise
Louise Devereux is a UK counsellor and a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) with three years' experience. She works with adults dealing with relationship strain, grief, parenting pressures, anxiety, stress and low self-esteem. Her practice also covers workplace concerns, life changes and issues around pregnancy and childbirth.
Louise focuses on creating a steady, non-judgemental working relationship where people can talk through what feels difficult. Sessions are conversational and patient. She helps clients notice patterns, clarify priorities and find practical steps forward when life feels overwhelming.
Her style is grounded in Client-Centred Therapy. That means she listens closely and follows the client's pace, reflecting back what she hears to help people make sense of their feelings. This approach is often used for concerns such as grief, relationship difficulty and midlife re-evaluation.
She has supported people through bereavement, separation and caregiver stress. Louise also works with those facing questions about purpose, isolation, and confidence at work. Clients who want to address parenting strain or the emotional effects of pregnancy and childbirth can bring those issues into sessions.
Sessions balance talking and practical problem-solving. Louise encourages small, achievable changes alongside exploring emotions. For adults feeling lost, overwhelmed or stuck, she offers a calm, steady presence while helping to identify realistic next steps.
How sessions work
How Client-Centred Work Adapts to Online Sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on attentive listening and following the client's lead. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what she hears, asks gentle questions and gives the client space to clarify feelings. This approach can help with grief, relationship strain, parenting stress and low self-esteem by allowing people to make sense of their own experience.Using this method online allows the same conversational, paced work as in person. The counsellor and client decide together what to focus on and whether to prioritise emotional exploration or practical steps. Finding the right approach is collaborative - the counsellor will check in about what feels most useful and adapt sessions to the client's goals and preferences.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping continuity during stressful periods while working on relationships, grief or parenting challenges.
