Louise Harris

Hello, I am based in the heart of Rochester, Kent. However, my online and telephone practice has taken precedence to offer you more accessible therapy in this current climate.

I work with a wide range of issues and find it's better for your well-being if you are not directed. The core of my practice is that I empathise and provide unconditional acceptance.

The client-counsellor relationship is vitally important. Many studies show that this is a major factor in a client's autonomy. You are the key to knowing whether a counsellor is right for you.

I draw on knowledge of various approaches to help reduce your psychological distress and enhance well-being. The core theory I draw on is person-centred, but I also bring in elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Transactional Analysis, Mindfulness, Transpersonal and inner child work. There can also be creative aspects, including guided visualisations. For trauma work I can also offer The Rewind Technique as well as working with ways of dealing with the trauma.

We can be quite organic when we are born, yet we build layers of experiences, traumas, beliefs, schemas and knowledge of the world. It's understanding these that can allow us to start understanding ourselves.

About Me:

I am a health advocate and believe that a healthy mind and body is vital to our positive wellbeing. It is scientifically proven that our stomach also acts as our second brain, so feeding ourselves with the right fuel and being active in varied ways is important for us psychologically and physically.

I have extensive knowledge of nutrition through my passion and I exercise and practice mindfulness. My curiosity and thirst for knowledge has also led me to currently studying an MSc in Psychology.

I offer a confidential space Mondays to Fridays.

Telephone & Online - A reduced rate of £59 (from 1st November). I may be able to offer limited concessionary rates. First initial/assessment session is reduced to £50.

I am self-employed at Freedom Living Counselling and also work for Harley Street Counselling and Training & Parent Cloud.

I am always happy to answer any questions.

Information gathering is an important part of the initial counselling session. In order to work effectively, an assessment is carried out with you. This explores what brings you to counselling, relevant history, symptoms, your expectations and the focus of therapy.

The therapeutic relationship between the counsellor and the client determines how effective therapy becomes (as research suggests). The first session explores the nature of the work and how this work might be achieved together. It's also a great opportunity to ask any questions.

Hello, I offer Skype and telephone sessions during the week to offer more accessible therapy. I have been carrying out extensive online and telephone sessions since 2016 as an addition to my practices (across Kent and London formerly).

Due to the current climate I am working throughout the week via online and telephone.

I offer a safe, confidential and comfortable setting. However, as I am working remotely via online and telephone from March 2020 onwards, I offer a confidential space online and telephone. I will communicate with you ahead  of the booked and secured session to discuss anything through.
