About Louise
Louise Guidon is a person centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and brings four years of professional practice to her work. She offers straightforward, practical support for parents and others facing everyday pressures.
She helps people with stress and anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief and loss, low self-esteem, anger, sleep problems and the challenges of parenting.
Background and approach
Additional areas of focus include ADHD, trauma and abuse, and issues such as abandonment, attachment and caregiver stress. Her approach is warm and non-judgemental. Sessions focus on listening and understanding first, then on working together to find what feels most useful.
She aims to create a calm space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through openly. Prior to training as a counsellor, Louise worked supporting adults with housing and mental health needs. She has also worked in local counselling services, as a college counsellor and with a national children's charity offering wellbeing support to children, young people and parents.
This range of settings informs her practical, down-to-earth style. Louise offers a mix of online and live session formats to fit different routines. She encourages people to take small steps and focuses on helping them find realistic ways to manage day-to-day challenges and improve family life over time.

Approaches Louise lists

Person centred care and online options
Louise works from a person centred perspective which means sessions centre on the client’s experience. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the person’s lead to build understanding and support. This approach is helpful for issues such as stress, low self-esteem, relationship and parenting concerns.Her background supporting people in colleges, local services and a national charity feeds into a practical delivery of person centred work. The focus is on empathetic listening first, then helping people identify small, achievable steps that fit their life. That collaborative process makes it easier to try different ways of working and to adjust the approach to what feels most useful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls work well when face-to-face conversation matters. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief updates, ongoing support between sessions or people who prefer writing their thoughts down.
These options aim to give flexibility so therapy can fit around family life, work and busy schedules. The therapist will discuss which formats might work best and will adapt methods to match the client’s goals and preferences.
