About Louise
Louise Vickers is a BACP registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She supports people dealing with anger alongside related concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, addiction, grief and self-esteem. She works with adults who want more control over how they react and relate to others.
Her practice is person-centred, which means sessions focus on the person's experience and priorities. She listens and responds to what matters most to the client, then works with them to set realistic goals. Motivational Interviewing is used to help people find their own reasons for change and keep momentum.
In sessions she will talk through current problems, patterns of behaviour, and practical steps to try between meetings. Conversations are straightforward and paced to suit the client. She pays attention to how anger shows up - for example snapping at others, bottling resentment, or struggling with workplace stress - and explores manageable alternatives.
Louise has worked with a wide range of life issues including trauma, bereavement, parenting strains, chronic health concerns and career crossroads. That experience informs how she notices links between mood, stress and relationships.
People who choose her can expect a calm, problem-focused approach that aims to increase awareness and day-to-day coping. The counsellor discusses options and progress together so adjustments can be made as needed.
How sessions work
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s own concerns at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens to what matters most and reflects it back, helping the person clarify feelings and priorities. This approach suits people who want straightforward space to talk and make sense of their reactions, including anger and relationship strain.Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to build motivation for different choices, such as changing how to respond in heated moments or tackling addictive behaviours. This is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about next steps.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The counsellor will collaborate with the client to decide which approach or combination fits best, based on the person’s goals and everyday life. Changes and options are reviewed together as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm available online options before booking. Online meetings can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to continue work between appointments and bring real-life situations into discussion without needing to be away from home.
