About Luisvet
Luisvet Barragans Villarroel helps people facing parenting pressures and related stresses. She supports concerns such as anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD and career strain. Her approach is calm and practical, aimed at small changes that make daily life easier.
She uses a client-centred style that puts the person's experience first. This means listening closely and shaping sessions around what matters most to the individual. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try different ways of responding.
Background and approach
Luisvet brings three years of clinical experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as BACP. She speaks English and Spanish, so sessions can be held in either language. Her work commonly addresses family-related worries, eating and body image concerns, trauma and attachment questions.
Sessions are practical and conversational. Clients can expect to talk through specific situations, try small exercises between sessions, and reflect on what helps. The focus is on building coping skills and clearer thinking rather than labels or quick fixes.
People who reach out are guided through a straightforward start-up process. After a short questionnaire a schedule is agreed and sessions can run by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. The subscription model means sessions are arranged within the service and can be cancelled when no longer needed.

Therapeutic approaches that suit online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. The counsellor follows the persons lead, helping them to talk through what matters and to find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps people try different ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety, low mood or unhelpful habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. This shared planning means the approach can be adapted as therapy progresses to suit changing needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are good for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection, or when someone prefers writing to talking. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, childcare and daily life while keeping the focus on progress and usable skills.
