Louise is a warm, playful children’s counsellor offering walk-and-talk therapy that helps young people feel safe, relaxed, and engaged. With years of experience in school wellbeing teams, she has supported students, parents, and educators across a range of emotional and behavioural needs.
As a mum of five, Louise brings both professional expertise and lived experience, including raising neurodivergent children and her own late diagnosis of autism and ADHD. This gives her a deep understanding of the challenges families face and a genuine, down-to-earth approach.
Sessions are creative, flexible, and often outdoors, using activities like games, storytelling, art, LEGO®-based therapy, and nature-based experiences to build connection and emotional skills. Louise also incorporates calming strategies such as EFT (tapping) and sensory-based techniques.
Her gentle support dogs, Hiro and Derry, are often part of sessions, helping children feel at ease and supported.
