Louise Fielder, BACP

Louise Fielder offers compassionate counselling to support people navigating difficult emotions and life changes. She works with individuals who feel less than their best and who are seeking practical change, creating a welcoming, non-judgmental space to explore feelings and reactions. Many people arrive feeling isolated or confused after trauma, loss, or ongoing stress; Louise helps them name those experiences and find manageable steps forward.

Her practice supports people coping with bereavement, anxiety, depression, self-harm and suicidal thoughts, loss due to suicide, low self-esteem, and trauma. Louise uses an integrated approach that combines person-centred and solution-focused techniques so each course of counselling can be adapted to the individual’s needs and goals. She aims to empower clients to draw on their own resources and to build strategies that fit their everyday lives.

Sessions are offered by phone, online video, or chat, and Louise is available to answer questions about methods and services to help prospective clients decide if her style is the right match. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Therapeutic approaches for online support and growth

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and creating an accepting space where the client leads the pace and direction of change. This approach helps people explore feelings, build self-understanding, and work on issues like self-esteem, grief, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and gently challenge unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour. CBT is often used to address anxiety, low mood, and everyday stress by developing practical strategies that can be applied between sessions.

Solution-focused therapy is brief and goal-oriented, concentrating on strengths, resources, and small practical steps toward desired outcomes. It is useful for people who want clear, action-oriented strategies and progress reviews over a shorter timescale.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Louise works collaboratively with each person to identify the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors methods so therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity between meetings, and choose the format that feels most comfortable while working with a registered professional.
