About Louise
Louise Creswick is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety and panic attacks. She also supports those dealing with grief, low self-esteem and the strain of major life changes. Her manner is warm and non-judgemental, and she aims to make sessions straightforward and practical for worried parents reading on a phone.
She brings five years of experience working in therapeutic and mental health roles across the United Kingdom. Louise is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often written as BACP, which is shown in her credentials. She combines counselling with coaching skills to help people set goals and take manageable steps between sessions.
Her style is integrative. That means she uses ideas and tools from different approaches to suit each person. Sessions often focus on what feels most pressing that week and on small, practical changes that can ease day-to-day life.
Louise uses techniques from client-centred work to listen and reflect what matters to the client. She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to spot and reframe unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness-based practices are used too, to help with grounding and reducing overwhelm.
Sessions are delivered in ways set by the service and can vary, so it is best to confirm the current options before booking. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.
How her approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person in front of the counsellor. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what matters most to them, which can reduce anxiety and make decisions easier.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT looks at connections between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses straightforward activities and small experiments to test unhelpful thinking and teach coping strategies for panic attacks and ongoing worry.
Mindfulness Therapy uses simple grounding and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and increase the ability to notice thoughts without being carried away by them. These practices are useful when panic or anxiety feels very intense.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then agree together which techniques to try. This collaborative process means plans can change as needs evolve.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around everyday life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in between commitments, or letting someone choose audio rather than video if that suits them better. Registered or accredited professionals can use online work to continue regular sessions while adapting pace and tasks to each person's routine.
