Louise | Psychotherapist, Counsellor, Art Therapist
Psychotherapy and Art Therapy Islington - London
“You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the end.” (CS Lewis)
Working with me will help you think, see and feel differently. I’m a London-based psychotherapist with a specialist interest (and qualification) in art psychotherapy. As an ‘integrative’ psychotherapist (apologies for the jargon), I have studied and practised many different approaches but I am not wedded to any one approach in particular. It’s what works for you that matters. I’m able to work both in-person and online.
I work across all forms of addiction, anxiety, depression, emotional overload, relationship difficulties, shame, low self-esteem, trauma and grief. Having MAs in both communication design and art psychotherapy, I am an enthusiastic advocate for using art materials as a way of helping my clients unravel and understand their debilitating, sub-conscious thoughts and feelings.
It was the many years I spent in therapy myself that eventually prompted me to retrain as a psychotherapist. And it’s this personal experience that underpins my natural empathy with my clients.
I’m able to see clients for both short and longer-term work. Even single sessions can be extraordinarily effective.
If you would liek to know more or book an appointment, please send me a message.

Specialisations
Many of my clients have long-standing, deeply-rooted conditions, like trauma or depression, for which they may have already received a particular form of therapy, and would like to try a different approach.Others come with a particular problem that’s recently arisen, looking for a quick breakthrough. There is no 'ideal' number of sessions that I recommend. We work together, constantly reviewing and discussing the work as it goes.
I specialise in anxiety, depression, all forms of addiction and alcoholism, grief, low self-esteem, trauma and relationship difficulties.
Most common issues I support people with:
- Anxiety
- Addiction
- Low self-esteem
- Relationship difficulties
