About Luisa

Luisa Prosser is a BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) counsellor with 15 years of professional experience. She practises in the United Kingdom and speaks English. Luisa aims to make first contact as straightforward as possible for people who are worried or uncertain about starting counselling.

She has supported adults with anxiety, depression, stress and work-related pressure. She has helped people through relationship difficulties, separation and divorce, loss, addiction and the long-term strain that can follow caregiving. Luisa also works with concerns such as ADHD, autism and neurodiversity that affect self-esteem and life choices.

Her background is in psychodynamic counselling while also using client-centred ideas and cognitive behavioural tools. In practice she listens first, and then helps clients set small, clear goals to work towards. Sessions often focus on understanding patterns, building confidence and finding practical steps forward.

Luisa has experience helping people explore gender identity and sexual orientation, and supporting those affected by family conflict or trauma. She also lists coping with natural or human-caused disaster among areas she can address, alongside grief and compassion fatigue.

The opening session is a chance to get to know one another, clarify what brought someone to therapy and set achievable aims. She works collaboratively and aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can find their own voice and make steady change.

How therapeutic approaches guide online conversations

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and building a trusting relationship so people can talk openly about what matters most; it suits those who need a supportive space to find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical steps - identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioural experiments - and it is often useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Psychodynamic work looks at recurring patterns and past experiences that shape current feelings, helping people make sense of long-standing worries.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and agree collaboratively what feels most helpful. That choice can change over time as goals evolve and new issues arise.

The biography notes that sessions have been offered by video call, phone and live chat, though readers should confirm current session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, reduce travel time and let someone use a quieter environment. Working remotely can still focus on practical tools, reflective conversations and goal-setting in much the same way as in-person therapy.
