Couples Counselling:

“We decided to come and see Louisa after a period of feeling disconnected from each other. We were open to the idea of counselling, but were a little unsure and didn’t know what to expect. Louisa is kind, caring and immediately made us feel comfortable in our first counselling session with her. She has helped us to understand the underlying causes of our relationship issues and in doing so, we have learnt more about each other as individuals and as a couple.

It was important for us to have a neutral and safe space, away from our home environment and daily routines, to be able to talk to each other and listen to each other with Louisa’s assistance to help us to understand what was happening in our relationship.

We now have a better understanding of each other’s emotions and emotional responses to arguments. We are learning to work through our issues together as a couple and to communicate with each other in more effective ways. Louisa is helping us to reconnect and to regain positivity within our relationship. Our lives together are improving each day.”

Individual Counselling:

“A bit less than 4 years ago, following a series of unfortunate events in my life, I had reached a really low point. Emotionally, mentally and physically drained, I knew that I needed to find the strength to continue living, and out of sheer desperation, I finally reached out to Louisa. It was the best decision I ever made.

Louisa has helped me experience growth and overcome many energy blocks. In a loving and compassionate manner, she has helped me to identify both the destructive behavior patterns that led to my subsequent bouts of down spirals as well as the traumatic events leading up to them.Louisa has positively influenced my life and I am learning to identify and arrest addictive behaviours”

Educational Workshops:

“I co-lead the Women’s Anxiety and Depression Support Group, a self help group for women wanting to learn new skills to overcome anxiety and depression. Louisa did a presentation to our group on SMART goals. It was an interactive session and her warm friendly personality put everyone at ease and joining in with answers and comments. She was well organised in what she had to present to us and I could recommend her to speak to any group.”

“Thank you very much for the opportunity to share in this very insightful and practical session.  To have even an hour and a half was wonderful in providing the perspective needed to better navigate my relationship with both my daughters.  So many of the concepts are already proving very useful for me and for our beautiful, blossoming little people.

Sincerely, thank you.  You should know that you make a difference.”

“I found the butterfly affect classes on Coping with Stressful situations to be useful and empowering. The information presented and the ensuing discussion opened up doors of understanding. It was a very balanced presentation. Thank you Louisa. I also appreciated how all interactions were respectful and everyone was encouraged to speak their truth.”
