About Louise
BACP, NCPS. Six years' experience. Louise Baxter works with stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, low self esteem, depression and addictions, among other concerns. She offers counselling in English and accepts international clients.
Louise describes her approach as integrative. She uses a range of methods and chooses what fits each person’s needs. Sessions are client-led and focus on practical ways to change thoughts, feelings and behaviour.
Her work includes therapies that examine how attachment and relationships shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Emotionally-focused ideas help when there are strong or confusing feelings in relationships.
For trauma-related difficulties she references trauma-focused methods that use eye movement techniques to address how painful memories are held in the body and mind. She also draws on solution-focused and transactional analysis ideas to build on strengths and understand communication styles.
Louise lists a wide range of focus areas such as grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strains, anger, career concerns, ADHD and compassion fatigue. She also notes more specific topics like attachment wounds, abandonment, codependency and blended family issues.

How her approaches translate to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take actions that match their values; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and can help with intimacy issues, abandonment concerns and relationship difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the person to find their own solutions, which can help with self esteem and coping with loss.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Louise will talk through what feels most useful and try different methods as needed. Over a few sessions she and the client agree which techniques to continue with, based on goals and what works in practice.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. 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 allow people to use video or phone work depending on what suits their surroundings and energy levels. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises such as behavioural tasks, values work and emotion-focused interventions to an online setting so the therapeutic methods remain practical and relevant.
