Louise Gillies

Louise Gillies is a counsellor who helps people facing grief, fertility and pregnancy loss, early parenting worries, and the emotional impact of long-term health issues. She also supports those managing ADHD challenges and people working on motivation, self-esteem and confidence. Her approach is steady and practical, aimed at making difficult moments easier to handle.

She works in a calm and open way. Sessions move at the client's pace and focus on what feels manageable. Conversations centre on practical steps and small changes that improve day-to-day life.

Louise draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centred approaches, mindfulness, and solution-focused methods to tailor the work to each person. That means some sessions explore values and acceptance, while others focus on clear, short-term goals and skills to reduce overwhelm.

With ten years of experience and BACP registration, she blends practical techniques with a warm, listening style. People can expect a straightforward, compassionate process rather than jargon or complex frameworks.

She accepts international clients and offers sessions from the United Kingdom. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on values and small actions that matter. It can be useful for grief, chronic health challenges and low motivation.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of the work. The therapist listens without judgement and follows the client’s pace, which suits people needing a gentle, steady space to talk.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Louise will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit your goals and preferences. That might mean using acceptance-focused work one week and short solution-focused tasks the next.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around daily life, keeping appointments that would otherwise be hard to attend, and using brief check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt session length and pacing to match everyday schedules, helping therapy feel more manageable.
