Louise Davies, BACP

Louise Davies welcomes people who are navigating difficult moments in relationships, grief, mental health concerns, neurodiversity, or mid-life change. She offers a calm, steady presence for those struggling with connections to partners, parents, children, friends or colleagues, and for people coping with loss, anxiety, depression or recent diagnoses such as Autism or ADHD.

Drawing on both professional training and personal experience, she works collaboratively with clients to gently explore what is happening in the present and, when helpful, to look back at past patterns that influence current feelings and behaviour. Louise trained as a Person-Centred counsellor, an approach that prioritises empathy, acceptance and the client therapist relationship, and she is currently training to be a counselling Supervisor. She is also a member of BACP, a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom.

Based in the United Kingdom and of Jewish background, Louise lived in Israel for several years and offers therapy in English and Hebrew. She aims to create a warm, non-judgmental, non-directive space and to walk alongside clients as they work through whatever is challenging them, whether that means building insight, developing practical strategies or both.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Louise Davies draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centred approaches to guide her online practice. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and can help with difficulties in intimacy, trust and long-term connections. Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the process, emphasising empathy, acceptance and the therapeutic relationship to support self-understanding and personal growth. Psychodynamic ideas may also be used to explore underlying themes and recurring patterns that influence how a person feels and behaves.

Deciding which approach or combination of approaches to use is part of the therapeutic process. Louise works collaboratively with clients to identify goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, adapting methods over time to suit individual needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place as video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives or to access support from different locations. Registered professionals can deliver meaningful, supportive work through these formats while helping clients build insight and practical coping strategies.
