Louise Baxter , BACP, NCPS

Louise Baxter is a licensed integrative psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom who combines several therapeutic methods to meet each person's unique needs. She frames her work as a practical toolkit - collaboratively exploring which techniques fit best and adapting them as therapy progresses.

She holds BACP and NCPS credentials, indicating membership with recognised professional counselling and psychotherapy bodies. With six years of clinical experience, she has supported people through a range of complex mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, bereavement and suicidal ideation, as well as relationship and family dynamics, attachment difficulties, problems with self-esteem and motivation.

Her practice is client-led, prioritising the individual’s goals and pace. Louise draws on person-centred humanistic approaches that emphasise growth and self-awareness, cognitive behavioural methods that address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, trauma-focused techniques such as Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT) that use guided eye movement to resolve learned emotional responses, solution-focused work that highlights strengths and future goals, and Transactional Analysis to clarify communication patterns.

Louise offers a supportive space where people can explore their needs and co-create a plan for change. She encourages questions about the therapy process and sets expectations collaboratively to help clients move toward the life they want.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and build actions aligned with those values. It uses mindfulness and practical exercises to reduce the impact of difficult thoughts and feelings and can be useful for anxiety, depression and stress.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns formed in close relationships and how those patterns influence current intimacy, trust and communication. It can be helpful for relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns and attachment-related distress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers structured techniques to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, low mood, unhelpful habits and many everyday coping challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Louise works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences, adapting the plan as understanding grows and priorities change.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different lifestyles and circumstances. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of support, access therapy from different locations and choose formats that feel most comfortable for each person.
