Louise Brannan

Louise Brannan is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She offers a calm, respectful approach and helps people talk through feelings, thoughts and behaviour that are getting in the way of daily life.

She has five years of experience working with issues such as stress, anxiety, depression and anger. Sessions commonly cover life changes, grief, relationship concerns, sleep problems and addictions, and she tailors the work to each person's needs. Louise aims to provide practical exercises and tools alongside conversation so people can build new coping strategies between sessions.

Louise works with the whole person rather than just symptoms. She explores thoughts and emotions with clients and uses whatever techniques fit the situation and goals. That might include structured exercises, reflective discussion or short practical tasks to try at home.

Her practice emphasises respect, sensitivity and compassion. Louise encourages small, steady steps and supports people to move towards goals they choose. She frames the therapy process as a partnership where the client’s priorities guide decisions about pace and direction.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts clients internationally. Prospective clients are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin the process and to schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Approach choices and online therapy explained

Louise uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on talking through feelings and introducing practical tools. One common approach is structured conversation work, which helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try small changes that affect mood and behaviour. This method is useful for stress, anxiety, anger and low mood.

Another key element is practical skills training, which involves short exercises and tasks to practise between sessions. These tasks help people build coping strategies for sleep problems, relationship issues, addictive behaviours and life transitions. They are aimed at producing steady, workable changes rather than quick fixes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process and will be decided collaboratively. The counsellor discusses goals, preferences and day-to-day realities with each person and adapts the techniques used as therapy progresses.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor session length and frequency to match practical needs and goals.
