About Louisa

Louisa Cibrian is a counsellor with five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She aims to help people who are juggling life stress, relationship difficulties, anxiety or depression, and those coping with grief or major life changes. She writes in straightforward terms and offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through what matters to them.

Her practice focuses on helping individuals rebuild after relationship endings, strengthen self-esteem and confidence, and look at the causes behind addictive patterns. She works with a wide range of concerns such as sleep and eating problems, anger, intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, and attention differences like ADHD. Louisa also supports people facing fertility, adoption and foster care issues, cancer, hospice and end-of-life matters, and the effects of trauma and dissociation.

Louisa describes her style as integrative, drawing on attachment-based, client-centred and psychodynamic ideas along with trauma-focused approaches when needed. She emphasises listening without judgement and pacing work to each person’s needs. The aim is to increase self-awareness, build coping strategies, and help people find their own strengths.

Sessions are offered in English and Louisa accepts international clients. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

Louisa welcomes people who need practical help and steady support while navigating difficult experiences. She encourages clients to take gradual steps toward change and to work at a pace that feels manageable.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Louisa draws on attachment-based work to look at how early relationships affect present feelings and reactions; this can help when trust, intimacy or repeating relationship patterns are a concern. Client-centred therapy means she follows the person’s agenda, offering empathic listening and gentle reflection to help people find their own solutions. Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice recurring themes and unconscious patterns that show up in current life and relationships.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Louisa will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and how they prefer to work. Together they decide which ideas and techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress and needs change.

The practical benefits of online work include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and options to meet without travel. Because the biography does not specify formats, check which session types are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to arrange shorter check-ins, choose times across different time zones, or avoid commuting so therapy fits better with daily life.
