About Lou

Lou Clark is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, career difficulties and depression. She also offers coaching around communication problems, feelings of emptiness, jealousy, midlife challenges, self-love and women's issues. Lou uses a warm, respectful approach to make it easier to speak about difficult topics.

Lou has four years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to guide ethical practice. She works collaboratively with each person and adapts the conversation to what feels most useful. Lou aims to create a non-judgemental and supportive space where people can speak freely and feel heard.

Her main working style is Client-Centred Therapy, which places the person and their perspective at the heart of sessions. She blends this with ideas from other counselling theories when it helps the client’s goals. The aim is practical change through increased self-awareness and clearer choices.

Lou accepts adults and runs therapy by video for people aged 18 and over. She asks people to be ready to discuss their aims so sessions can be shaped around them. The first steps involve a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the client’s needs.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary with location and therapist availability. Lou encourages people to reach out even if they are not in crisis, because therapy can help at many stages of life.

How Lou’s client-centred approach works online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, listening-based relationship where the person leads the pace and topics of sessions. In practice this means the counsellor reflects back what they hear, asks gentle questions and supports the client to discover their own solutions; it can help with anxiety, low mood and relationship concerns.

Lou also draws on ideas from other counselling theories when useful, combining approaches to match a person’s needs. That blended way means the work is shaped around what the person wants to achieve rather than following one fixed method. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative conversation between the client and counsellor.

Practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. The profile states that Lou provides video therapy for adults aged 18 and over, so please confirm current session options when you book. The counsellor will help you choose a rhythm and format that fits your goals and day-to-day life.
