About Louisa

Louisa Cibrian welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by pregnancy, parenthood or other life changes. She speaks plainly and calmly, helping people who feel anxious, low or stuck to find small, practical steps forward. Louisa offers a listening space where people can talk about grief, relationships, addictions and the everyday pressures of caring for a family.

She uses an integrative style that draws on attachment-based ideas and psychodynamic thinking alongside a client-centred approach. This means she focuses on people’s personal stories and relationships while following each person’s pace and goals. Sessions are framed around what matters to the individual and aim to build awareness, coping skills and confidence.

Louisa has five years of professional work experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has practised with people facing depression, anxiety, trauma and grief, and supports those dealing with fertility, adoption and parenthood concerns.

People can expect a non-judgemental, practical way of working. Louisa looks at patterns that may have started in childhood and helps people understand how those patterns affect life now. The focus is on helping clients become more resilient and develop realistic strategies for managing stress and relationships.

She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. To begin, readers are invited to use the site’s matching process and schedule a first appointment when they are ready.

How her approaches work for online sessions

Attachment-based work focuses on how relationships shape feelings and reactions. It helps people understand patterns in close relationships and develop safer, more supportive connections. Client-centred therapy puts the person's experience first, offering active listening and reflection so clients can find their own solutions and build confidence. Psychodynamic ideas look at how past experiences, including childhood, influence current behaviour and relationships, helping to bring those patterns into view and change them.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and together decide which ideas to use. That plan can shift over time as the person’s priorities change and progress is reviewed.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible for people outside the local area to work with registered or accredited professionals. Practical benefits include scheduling around appointments, quieter surroundings for talking and avoiding travel on difficult days.
