About Louise

Louise Guidon is a person-centred counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has four years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and has worked in local counselling agencies, a college setting and a national children’s charity. Her practice includes supporting people with stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, grief and self-esteem issues among other difficulties.

Louise has also worked directly with adults in housing and mental health support before training as a counsellor. That background informs how she notices practical pressures alongside emotional struggles. She is experienced supporting people through life changes such as bereavement, separation, career uncertainty and long-term health concerns.

Her approach uses person-centred therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the individual. Sessions focus on the client’s concerns and priorities, helping them to talk through feelings and consider options. The style aims to be straightforward and non-judgemental rather than directive.

In practice, Louise offers one-to-one work that can cover intimacy-related issues, parenting strains, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related difficulties and trauma or abuse. She also supports people facing anger, sleep problems and feelings of emptiness or shame. Her experience with children, young people and parents in charity and college settings informs her work with adults who are concerned for family members.

To begin, people use the site matching process and then book an initial session. Fees vary by location and sessions are provided through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Person-centred work and online sessions

Person-centred therapy focuses on the person’s own experience. The counsellor listens carefully, reflects what the client says and helps them make their own sense of things. This approach suits issues like low self-esteem, relationship confusion and coping with life changes where exploring personal feelings is the primary need.

Louise’s practical background in housing and mental health support complements person-centred work by attending to everyday pressures as well as emotions. Together with the client she will review how the approach is working and adapt the way they meet based on the client’s needs and preferences. Deciding what fits best is a collaborative part of early sessions.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the session options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them engage more easily.
