I’m Luise, a BACP and UKCP registered Psychotherapist based in London. I have over 20 years of experience in coaching and mentoring in the corporate industry and a background that’s both creative and clinical. I hold a Master’s Degree (MSc) in Integrative Psychotherapy, a Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and a BA in Art History.
My therapeutic work is relational and integrative grounded in evidence, ethics, and empathy. I draw on a wide range of approaches to support you in making sense of your inner world and navigating life’s complexities.
Working as a reflective practitioner is at the core of work; my own 15 year journey in therapy alongside extensive therapeutic training and clinical experience has led me to run a busy private practice in Central, East & South East London whilst also acting as a specialist mentor to individuals at University across the UK with Neurordiversity; such as ADHD, dyslexia and Autism.
I work relationally, which means working together to consider specific patterns and belief systems and how they may have formed through past experiences. Some of these experiences can be difficult to access; using imagination and art therapy can help and I integrate this if appropriate. I have a good sensitivity to boundaries and a strong capacity to listen attentively and non-judgmentally; to exercise flexibility, range and intuition.
I am a compassionate but challenging therapist and have experience working with actors, artists, city workers, immigrants, NHS staff, freelancers, journalists, academics, parents, teachers and those with career dilemmas plus many more different individuals.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
