Louise Rossiter

A warm welcome, and thank you for visiting my page. Reaching out for support is a courageous first step. Life can feel overwhelming, and challenges—whether in relationships, work, finances, or from past experiences—can leave us feeling stuck, isolated or exhausted. If worries are affecting your sleep, mood or daily life, it may be the right moment to speak with someone who can help you navigate this difficult time. Whether you’re seeking specific change or healing from deeper wounds, I’m here to help.

My approach

I work primarily from a person-centred perspective, placing you at the heart of the therapeutic process. You bring what matters most, and together we explore these issues at a pace that feels right. In the early stages, my role is a supportive guide as your themes and patterns come to light.

As an integrative therapist, I draw from a range of therapeutic models, choosing methods that feel most helpful for you. Every client is unique, and I tailor sessions to your individual needs. I’m particularly interested in how past experiences may shape your present, and how—with compassion—you can understand beliefs or behaviours that no longer serve you. Developing this insight can create room for healthier and more empowered ways of living.

Background and experience

Before becoming a counsellor, I spent six years as a psychology lecturer in a UK university, and many years as a holistic therapist. These experiences, combined with specialist trauma training, inform my work in supporting clients to regulate emotions, interrupt trauma responses, and soften the impact of painful or frightening experiences.

Next steps

I look forward to meeting you and working together toward the change you’re seeking. If you’d like to arrange a free initial session, please get in touch by call or text. This first meeting gives us space to explore what you want from counselling, and if it feels right, we can arrange ongoing sessions.

I offer weekly or fortnightly sessions either online or face to face. Sessions are open ended and so could be brief and targeted for  specific agreed objectives or longer term dependant on your needs.   

The first counselling session is a no cost initial consultation offering you a chance to tell me about yourself and what issues are affecting you. We can discuss what you would like to achieve from counselling.
