Louise Guidon, BACP

Louise Guidon is a person‑centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and brings four years of professional experience to her practice. Louise aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable for people who are worried or overwhelmed.

She focuses on creating a calm, open space where people can talk about what’s on their mind without fear of judgement. Conversations tend to be led by the person seeking support, with the counsellor following their pace and priorities. That approach can help when dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self‑esteem, relationship and family concerns, and sleep or parenting strain.

Louise has worked in local counselling agencies and as a college counsellor, and she currently runs a face‑to‑face practice in the UK. She also provides wellbeing support through a national children’s charity, supporting children, young people and parents. Before training as a counsellor she worked in housing and mental health support services, which informs her practical understanding of everyday pressures.

People meet Louise to talk through issues such as trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and career or life changes. She also offers support around complex topics like abandonment, attachment matters, chronic illness and disability, and the effects of domestic violence.

Her style is steady and non‑judgemental, aiming to help people feel heard and clearer about their next steps. To begin, visitors are asked to use the continue button on this profile and complete a short matching questionnaire to arrange sessions according to the counsellor’s scheduling process.

Person‑centred practice and online counselling options

Person‑centred therapy focuses on listening carefully and reflecting back what someone brings to a session. The counsellor follows the person’s pace, helping them to clarify feelings and priorities without directing the outcome. This approach can be useful for worries like anxiety, relationship strain, grief and life changes.

That same person‑led tone transfers well to conversational online work because it values the client’s preferences about how sessions feel. The counsellor will work together with each person to decide which way of meeting suits their goals and day‑to‑day life, and will adapt the approach as therapy progresses.

The original profile does not list specific online formats, so please confirm available session options before booking. Many people find remote sessions make it easier to fit counselling into a busy routine, avoid travel time and keep appointments during work breaks. Others prefer face‑to‑face meetings for more in‑person contact; Louise’s practice includes a face‑to‑face setting in the UK, and scheduling is organised after completing the short matching questionnaire.
