<p class="wp-block-paragraph">My name is Louise Cushen and I am a therapeutic counsellor, working in a reparative, person-centred way with an integrative training background. I have experience working with young people and adults finding their way through life&#8217;s changes and challenges.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I have predominantly worked with young adults between 16-19 year olds. Offering therapeutic support in the form of short and long term interventions for life&#8217;s challenges and anxieties. We work together to grow confidence and self-esteem, finding realistic ways of managing anxiety, low mood and self-harm. Creating a space where they can develop their own inner support system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Most recently I have also been working with males 35 &#8211; 60 who are navigating moments past; present and future, with the focus on processing anger and managing anxiety and depression.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I have spent years fighting back against dangerous ideologies that have taken over the world of psychotherapy and impacted upon the wellbeing of clients. I have had personal victories and vindication in this space, including&nbsp;<a href="https://www.psychotherapy.org.uk/news/litigation-pursued-by-james-esses-gender-critical-beliefs/">forcing the UK Council for Psychotherapy to acknowledge</a>&nbsp;the valid professional belief that children should not be irreversibly medicalised in the name of gender ideology.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Now, I am pleased to announce that I am stepping back into private practice and offering a limited number of slots to clients who would like to have therapy with me. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As the Founder of Just Therapy, you have my pledge that I will abide by the principles of non-judgement, neutrality, evidence-based practise, exploration, resilience, and free speech.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I work with all manner of issues, ranging from addiction and anxiety to gender dysphoria and relationship issues.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I look forward to working with you.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I offer counselling and psychotherapy in the peaceful and tranquil setting of my home in rural Northumberland. Prior to setting up my private practice I have had 20 years experience as an educational psychologist, specialising in attachment and trauma. In 2020 I decided the time had come to make the change to focus entirely on counselling in private practice and I can offer both in-person and online sessions. (I am fully qualified in Educational Psychology, Person Centred Counselling, Silent Counselling, EMDR, and Online Therapy)  I practice primarily from a Person Centred perspective &#8211; I believe we all have the inherent wisdom and power within ourselves to heal and know our highest selves, if only we are given the right conditions and nurturing to do so. This also aligns with the philosophy of the Buddhist practice that has been an important element of my life for the past 30 years. I also offer Silent Counselling which is a form of energy release therapy for working with ‘stuck’ negative emotions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I am committed to helping clients finding their true selves in an atmosphere of complete acceptance, positive regard and respect but I may also gently challenge you and encourage you to explore areas that may be difficult when this is appropriate as I believe this is essential on the path of self-discovery. In a world that can feel increasingly confusing and alienating I will sit alongside you to help you find your voice to speak your truth and hold your boundaries. We can work in purely pragmatic ways, or we can explore deeper and more spiritual aspects of this journey, depending on your needs and wishes. I look forward to meeting you!</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I am a London-based counsellor and coach, with an extensive background in Psychology. In my client work, I specialise in the following psychological topics: anxiety, depression, relationships, low confidence and low self-esteem, OCD and addictions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The client journey is never the same but, in most cases, it starts with helping you pinpoint your current challenges and struggles and get clarity on your belief patterns and behaviour. In addition, we will also try to envision what the term “better life” looks like. Once this is clear, we will move into understanding how these patterns came to be and where they stem from. Next, we will explore what role they are playing in your current situation and how they are impacting your life. Finally, I help you explore and decide what changes must take place for you to improve, live a better life and avoid running into the same situations in the future.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Psycho-education plays an important part in my counselling and coaching work – I do my best to help you get acquainted with psychological concepts and frameworks. This will enable you to continuously expand your self-understanding long after we have finished working together.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I graduated as a Person-Centred counsellor 2005, trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) in 2021 and IFS (Internal Family Systems) in 2024. The majority of my work is with adults and young people (16+) diagnosed or self-identifying with autistic spectrum conditions (ASD) /Asperger’s; including those preparing to seek assessment, recently diagnosed or with complex feelings about their diagnosis.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I have 24 years’ experience of counselling. I previously worked as a family mediator for 15 years with parents &amp;&nbsp;teens and couples divorcing, separating or dissolving civil partnerships; within statutory and charitable sectors. I bring insights from these areas of&nbsp;work into my counselling practice. I am a mother of 3 adult children, including a son diagnosed with Aspergers.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I value individual difference, finding your own path, connection and relationship. I believe people can be empowered to find their own answers and work supportively with those weighed down with shame, low self-esteem or in chaos or stuckness. I am not afraid to be afraid, or to walk into a dark place.&nbsp;</p>

I focus on the unconscious signals that keep you set repeating unhelpful patterns of behaviour that influence your day-to-day decisions. I will also help you to understand your nervous system responses and regulate your reactions to better manage your moods and feelings. I have extensive training in peri and postnatal stages of life as well I can offer support to individuals and couples going through fertility issues. My practice approach is honest, non-judgemental, relational, engaging and flexible; tailored to each client’s need as every person is different and requires a different way of working. I integrate many trainings into my practice to gain the best results for my clients.&nbsp;</p>
