About Louise
Louise Fineberg offers a warm, person-centred approach to therapy. She focuses on listening carefully and helping people find their own strengths. Louise works to make the first steps feel manageable for those who are uncertain about starting therapy.
She draws on nine years of experience supporting people with relationship difficulties and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also helps clients coping with grief and loss, low mood, low self-esteem and motivation, and issues with sleep and addiction.
Background and approach
Louise uses everyday language and simple tools so conversations stay clear and practical. Her practice pays attention to how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. That means looking at patterns together, noticing moments that repeat, and finding ways to change them.
Louise aims to help people feel more in control and more able to handle everyday challenges. Mindfulness techniques are used to help with overwhelming emotions and to improve focus and sleep. Sessions may include guided breathing or gentle attention exercises that can be practised between meetings.
Louise also draws on client-centred ideas, so the pace and goals are set by the person in therapy. People seeking support can expect a calm, steady presence and straightforward feedback. Louise encourages practical steps to test new ways of coping.
She believes small changes built up over time lead to meaningful difference.

Approaches Louise lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also uses mindfulness therapy to help manage strong emotions and improve sleep and concentration. Mindfulness sessions include simple breathing and attention exercises that can be practised between meetings to reduce reactivity and increase calm.
Finding the right way of working is part of therapy. Louise works collaboratively to decide whether client-centred, mindfulness or psychodynamic ideas best suit a person’s needs, goals and preferences. She adapts the focus as therapy progresses so the approach stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video is useful when visual contact helps the conversation, phone calls need less bandwidth, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options give flexibility for different schedules, quieter surroundings and varying communication styles.
