About Louise
BACP counsellor with 10 years' experience, Louise Gillies helps people work through grief, parenting concerns, low self esteem and ADHD-related difficulties. She also focuses on fertility and pregnancy loss, postpartum issues, chronic illness and the emotional effects of major life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Louise uses clear, practical approaches in sessions. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Mindfulness and Solution-Focused methods to help people identify what matters to them and try manageable steps forward. Conversations are paced to each person and aimed at reducing overwhelm and building small, workable habits.
Typical work includes talking through the emotional impact of fertility problems or pregnancy loss, supporting early parenting stresses, and addressing concentration and memory struggles associated with ADHD. She also helps people cope with chronic pain or long-term illness and the knock-on effects this can have for daily life and relationships.
Louise supports people dealing with relationship breakdown, communication problems, and the fallout from infidelity. She offers practical help with decision points such as retirement, changes in family roles, and planning after separation. Her approach tends to be problem-focused and action-oriented when appropriate.
Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. This initial step helps clarify goals and work out which methods are likely to be most useful.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters to them and take small actions in line with those values. It is useful for grief, motivation and long-term health issues where acceptance of difficult feelings can free up energy for meaningful action.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting to help someone make sense of their own experience. This approach supports people working through parenting stresses, relationship problems and identity shifts by emphasising the client's perspective.
Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals, needs and preferences. This might mean trying a mindful exercise in one session and a solution-focused task in the next, then adapting the plan based on what helps.
The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter or more frequent check-ins, and reduce travel time. It can also be useful when someone needs a calmer setting or less visual focus on a session, depending on practical needs.
