Louise Malyan , BACP, NCPS

Louise Malyan is an empathic, down-to-earth ND Integrative Creative Counsellor who helps people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. She works with a wide range of concerns including trauma, complex PTSD, relationship challenges, addiction, alcohol issues, ADHD and low self-esteem, supporting survivors of sexual abuse and others facing difficult life changes.

Her approach combines practical talking therapy with creative counselling techniques, offering space to unpack feelings, process the past and explore new ways of coping. She specialises in trauma, couples counselling and addiction, and she tailors each plan to the individual rather than applying a single method to everyone. This means sessions can include traditional conversation, creative exercises or live chat depending on what best supports expression and recovery.

Louise holds BACP and NCPS credentials, which indicate professional training and membership in recognised counselling organisations. She has three years of professional experience working with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship and family difficulties, anger, self-esteem and career concerns.

Louise works with international clients and offers multiple ways to connect, but she is not currently accepting new clients. Her style is non-judgmental and collaborative, aimed at helping people move toward a more manageable and fulfilling life.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns shape emotional responses and interpersonal expectations. It helps people understand attachment wounds, improve trust and rebuild healthier ways of relating in close relationships.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasises a respectful, non-directive partnership where the client’s own goals and experiences lead the work. This approach supports self-exploration, emotional acceptance and personal growth for issues like anxiety, low self-esteem and coping with life changes.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of thoughts and feelings. It can help reduce reactivity to stress, improve focus, and provide tools for managing strong emotions linked to trauma, anxiety or addiction.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Louise will work collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, and may blend techniques to suit the individual.

Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, easier access for people in different locations, and multiple ways to engage so the work can fit into busy lives while still being led by licensed professionals and therapists.
