About Louise

Louise Brannan is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She draws on five years of practice to help people facing depression, anxiety and other life stresses. Louise aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk honestly about what is hard for them.

She uses a conversational approach that mixes talking with practical exercises. Sessions include exploring thoughts and feelings, trying small tasks between meetings, and building ways to cope with difficult moments.

Background and approach

The work is shaped around each person's goals and needs rather than a fixed programme. Louise often supports people dealing with relationships, low self-esteem, changes in life circumstances, grief and burnout. She also has experience with anger, sleeping problems, addiction concerns and neurodiversity-related challenges such as ADHD.

Her background includes helping people manage the emotional impact of chronic illness and caregiving roles. In sessions she focuses on clear, achievable steps and simple tools clients can use day to day. She emphasises compassion and respect while encouraging practical change.

People who want a straightforward, goal-oriented way through difficult feelings often find this style helpful. She works from the United Kingdom and offers help in English. International clients can be seen.

Louise tailors plans to each person and helps them decide which approach will work best.

Focus areas and approaches

What Louise works with

Everything Louise lists, in their own terms.

Online support

Louise typically uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that centre on talking and practical tasks. One common approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns to reduce low mood and anxiety; this involves noticing thoughts, testing them and trying small behavioural experiments to shift day-to-day routines. Another element emphasises skill-building for coping and regulation, such as relaxation practices, sleep routines and brief exercises to manage strong emotions. These methods suit concerns like depression, stress, sleep disruption and anger.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to what matters most, discuss options and agree a plan together. Plans can change as work progresses so the approach remains matched to goals and how a person prefers to work.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a face-to-face feel and fuller conversation, while phone sessions can fit a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text sessions suit brief check-ins or people who prefer writing to speaking. All formats aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
