Louisa Addo-Williams

Louisa Addo-Williams is a BACP counsellor with 13 years of experience. She offers a calm, practical way of working that focuses on what people want to change. Louisa speaks English and Twi and accepts international clients. She creates a steady space for talking things through and finding next steps.

Her work combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with attachment-aware and client-centred ways of talking. Sessions often look at values, relationships and patterns that repeat across life. She uses solution-focused ideas when people want shorter term help and psychodynamic thinking when there is a need to understand deeper patterns.

Louisa has experience supporting people with grief, loss and end-of-life concerns alongside stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness and the emotional impact of serious health problems such as cancer. Practical coping strategies are offered alongside space to process strong emotions.

Her approach is conversational and reflective. She asks straightforward questions to help people notice habits and try small changes. Some work may be brief and goal-focused; other work can be longer and explore life themes over time.

Sessions are arranged via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary with location and therapist availability. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, choose what matters most, and take small steps toward those values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, grief and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it is often helpful for relationship strain, intimacy issues and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals, life circumstances and what feels most helpful. Together they decide whether short-term, goal-focused work or longer exploration will suit the current need.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people access support when they live far from local services or have mobility challenges. Registered and accredited professionals will adapt exercises and discussions so they work well in remote sessions.
