About Louise

Louise Fineberg is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to support people through difficult times. She works with issues such as relationships, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression and addictions. Louise emphasises the strengths each person brings to sessions and treats clients as the experts in their own lives.

Her practice also includes help with sleeping difficulties, body image and eating and food-related issues. She offers support where long-term health or illness affects daily life, and with challenges such as chronic pain, cancer, fertility strains and hoarding. Communication and commitment problems are another common focus.

Louise trained and holds BACP registration, which she uses alongside nine years of professional experience. She draws on client-centred work to build a trusting relationship and psychodynamic ideas to notice patterns that repeat over time. Mindfulness techniques are used in session to help with grounding and managing difficult feelings.

Sessions are aimed at helping people notice what is getting in the way, try small changes and build on what already works. Louise encourages practical steps along with talking things through. She accepts clients from the United Kingdom and international clients where appropriate.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and Louise aims to make beginning therapy straightforward and respectful. Prospective clients are invited to use the site's process to match and schedule a first appointment.

Approaches that translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening carefully and following the client's lead, helping people feel heard and understood before making changes. It is useful for relationship strain, self-esteem and adjusting to life events.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple paying-attention practices to reduce overwhelm and manage strong feelings. These techniques can help with sleep problems, anxiety and coping after trauma.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat in relationships and feelings that arise from earlier experiences. It can be helpful when people want to understand deeper roots of recurring difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Louise will collaborate with each client to decide which methods suit their needs and goals. She encourages a shared plan so sessions focus on what matters most to the client.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into busy days and avoiding travel time. Online work can make short check-ins or regular weekly sessions simpler to keep up. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking to see how sessions might fit your routine.
