About Louise
Louise Ralph is a BACP-registered counsellor with eight years' experience working from the United Kingdom. She offers telephone and video sessions and sees people for daytime, evening and Saturday daytime appointments. Louise works with a wide range of concerns, including anger, stress, anxiety, addiction, grief and relationship difficulties.
Louise uses an integrative approach drawing on person-centred ideas and psychodynamic thinking. In practice she focuses on building a trusting working relationship and on practical ways to manage feelings that get in the way of daily life. Sessions often involve talking through patterns, learning small skills and reflecting on past events that still affect present behaviour.
She has worked in bereavement support and provides counselling through employee assistance programmes in addition to her private practice. That mix of settings informs a straightforward style that balances emotional exploration with coping strategies. Clients can expect conversational sessions that also include concrete steps to try between appointments.
When anger is the issue she helps people recognise triggers, notice how the body responds, and develop alternative responses that reduce snapping or resentment. Louise also supports work on sleep, eating, intimacy and confidence alongside mood and stress problems.
Sessions are provided in English and international clients are accepted. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details via the online matching and booking process.
How sessions work
How Louise uses therapeutic approaches online
Louise draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in her work. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how early connections affect current responses. This can help when anger is tied to feeling abandoned, rejected or misunderstood. Client-centred therapy focuses on open listening and making the client feel heard. It helps people speak about hard feelings and decide what changes matter to them. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and introduces practical techniques to reduce automatic reactions like snapping or avoidance. Finding which approach fits is part of the work. Louise will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and then try methods that suit those aims. That collaborative process makes sessions more useful and helps decide which tools to keep using. If you want to use online sessions, confirm the exact formats and times before booking since options can vary. The therapist's biography lists telephone and video sessions, which can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family life. Telephone calls can be a quicker check-in, while video allows visual cues during deeper conversations. Ask about scheduling and practical arrangements when you complete the matching questionnaire.Areas of focus
