About Louise
Louise Taylor, NCPS, helps people facing relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and major life changes. She uses clear, down-to-earth language and practical ways to support people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure where to begin.
Her approach is warm and flexible. She practices client-centred counselling, which means she listens closely and follows each person's pace and priorities. She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and emotionally-focused methods to help with patterns of thinking and painful feelings.
Before training as a counsellor, she worked as an actor, dance and drama teacher, and a lecturer supporting adults with learning disabilities and autism. That background influences how she works with creative and movement-based activities when words alone are hard to find.
She has a Post Graduate Certificate in Advanced Counselling and Psychotherapy Studies and holds the NCPS credential, which is shown as NCPS. Her wider training includes trauma-related work and expressive arts therapies, giving her a broad toolkit for different situations.
Sessions often include talking alongside simple creative tasks such as drawing or expressive writing when that helps people make sense of things. Louise aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can explore options and discover what feels helpful for them.
If someone is ready to begin, she asks them to use the platform Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then arrange sessions to suit their schedule.
How these approaches can help online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating a trusting space. The counsellor follows the person's pace and helps them find their own answers, which can suit people dealing with grief, low self-worth or relationship issues.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses simple exercises to try different responses. It can help with anxiety, mood problems and unhelpful thinking patterns.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and name strong emotions and how these affect close relationships. It is useful for people who want support with emotional regulation or attachment difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and they will try different ways of working so the person can see what helps most. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.
Confirm available session formats before booking, as the profile does not specify formats here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-in meetings, or letting someone join from a quieter place. Therapists and registered or accredited professionals can suggest practical ways to make sessions work for each person’s routine.
