Louise Creswick, BACP

Louise Creswick is a BACP registered counsellor (member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and an accredited coach based in the United Kingdom. She brings five years of professional experience working in a range of therapeutic and mental health roles and supports people navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, low self-esteem, and major life changes.

She works in an integrative way, combining practical tools and therapeutic techniques to suit what each person needs in a given session. Her style is warm, empathetic, and non-judgemental, creating a space where clients can explore their concerns at their own pace. Louise believes that each person is the expert in their own life and she tailors sessions to reflect individual strengths, goals, and circumstances.

Within her practice she aims to help clients build coping strategies, clarify values and priorities, and find forward-moving steps that feel manageable. Whether someone seeks support for a specific difficulty or wants broader coaching around life transitions, she adapts her approach to meet those needs while working collaboratively with the client.

Client-focused approaches for online therapy

Louise draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at a pace set by the client; this approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to explore feelings and personal goals. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours, often useful for stress, anxiety, and mood-related concerns. Mindfulness therapy is another element she may include, teaching present-moment awareness and coping strategies that can reduce reactivity and increase emotional balance.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Louise will work with each client to understand their needs, preferences, and goals, and adapt her methods so the work feels relevant and achievable. This partnership helps shape a personalised plan rather than prescribing a single technique.

Online sessions offer flexibility in how therapy is delivered - by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit support around work, family, and other commitments. These options allow clients to access regular, ongoing therapy from home or another convenient location while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor care to individual circumstances.
