Hi there. I’m Louise, a psychotherapist, hypnotherapist, coach and wellbeing practitioner with over 16 years’ experience supporting others to feel calmer, clearer and more in control.
Professional Memberships
I am a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and a registered practitioner with the General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR). These memberships reflect my commitment to professional standards, ethical practice, and ongoing professional development.
You can find my directory listing with the BACP here.
I can also be found on the London Counselling and Therapy Directory, Counselling Directory and Hypnotherapy Directory.


I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step. You may have been managing things on your own for some time, feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected from yourself or simply knowing that something needs to change.
My aim is to offer you a warm, compassionate and genuinely non-judgemental space where you can slow down, talk openly and feel truly heard.
Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, low mood, grief, a difficult life transition or unhelpful patterns that you’re finding difficult to change, therapy can give you the time and space to understand what’s happening beneath the surface and begin moving forward.
I believe that you already have many of the resources you need within you. Sometimes, we simply need the right support, perspective and space to reconnect with them.
My Therapeutic Approach
I believe therapy should be as individual as the person sitting in front of me. There is no single approach that works for everyone, which is why I take time to understand you — your experiences, thoughts, feelings, patterns, relationships and what you would like to be different.
My approach is warm, collaborative and personalised. I draw on psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, coaching and holistic therapeutic approaches, incorporating evidence-based psychological techniques alongside approaches that can support greater self-awareness, emotional wellbeing and lasting change.
Depending on what you need, our work may involve understanding and gently challenging unhelpful thought patterns, exploring emotions and behaviours, developing healthier coping strategies, building confidence and self-worth, changing habits, working with the subconscious mind or reconnecting with the parts of yourself that may have become lost beneath the pressures of everyday life.
I work collaboratively and at a pace that feels right for you. My role is not to judge, tell you what to do or give you all the answers, but to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself, discover what you need and make changes that feel meaningful and sustainable.
I provide:
- Confidential one-to-one sessions tailored to your individual needs
- Support delivered at a pace that feels comfortable for you
- Flexible ways of working, including Online, In-Person, In Nature, or At Home sessions
My Background
My professional experience includes working as a private therapist and as an IAPT Counsellor for an organisation taking NHS primary care referrals and supporting people with a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties.
I have also held senior wellbeing, welfare and safeguarding roles within Higher Education, as well as working in organisational and consultancy settings. These experiences have given me a broad understanding of the many different pressures that can affect our emotional wellbeing, from relationships, work and family life to major life transitions and periods of uncertainty or change.
Across my career, I have supported thousands of people through a wide range of personal, emotional and life challenges. Today, through Wisdom Within Therapy, I bring together this experience with my passion for helping people understand themselves more deeply, reconnect with their inner strengths and create positive, lasting change.
"Life isn't about finding yourself.
It's about creating yourself."
