Louisa Cibrian

Louisa Cibrian is a counsellor who aims to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by grief, stress or big life changes. She works with individuals facing anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship difficulties. Louisa offers a calm, non-judgemental space and focuses on practical steps you can try between sessions.

She uses a mix of person-centred, psychodynamic and trauma-focused ideas to suit each person. That can mean listening closely to your story, looking at patterns that began in childhood, or gently addressing past trauma so it causes less distress now. Louisa also pays attention to how attachment and early relationships shape current feelings and choices.

Her approach is straightforward and paced to the person in front of her. She will help you find small, manageable changes to build confidence and reduce anxiety. For people dealing with bereavement or hospice and end-of-life worries she offers space to talk about guilt, memories and practical coping strategies.

Louisa holds BACP accreditation, and she brings five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She welcomes people who are juggling busy lives and offers flexible scheduling where possible. International clients can also be considered; please check session arrangements when you enquire.

To begin, Louisa asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions in line with her timetable. She uses a subscription payment model that can be cancelled at any time so people can adapt therapy to their changing needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling

Louisa draws from attachment-based work, client-centred practice and trauma-focused methods. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and helps people understand patterns in close relationships. Client-centred practice puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, with the counsellor listening without judgement and following the client’s pace. Trauma-focused methods aim to reduce the impact of past traumatic events by addressing distressing memories and building coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try. This collaborative way helps the work fit your life and your aims rather than following a fixed formula.

Confirm the session formats available before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow people to access a therapist in a different location or time zone. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques used in face-to-face work to remote sessions, helping you maintain continuity of care while arranging appointments that suit your routine.
