About Luise

Luise Sargent is a psychotherapist with a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) registration and ten years of experience. She works with people who are carrying stress, anxiety, relationship and family problems, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, trauma and grief. She also supports those dealing with intimacy and eating or sleeping difficulties, parenting strain, anger and major life changes.

Her approach is practical and person-focused. She uses client-centred ways of working that start with the person's own priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) features in her work when thoughts and behaviours need to be addressed. Solution-Focused Therapy is used for time-limited goals and clearer next steps.

Sessions are conversational and aim to identify what is getting in the way. Luise helps people name patterns and test small changes. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment worries, body image, codependency and communication problems when these come up.

Her practice also covers issues linked to caregiving, cancer, blended family problems, divorce and domestic violence. Luise recognises how compassion fatigue and ADHD-related struggles can affect everyday coping, and she looks at practical ways to manage those pressures.

People who choose to work with her complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Luise uses Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on the person's own experience and priorities and aims to build clearer self-understanding. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test practical changes in thinking and behaviour. Solution-Focused Therapy appears when someone wants short-term, goal-oriented work and clearer next steps.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss needs, goals and preferences with the client and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process helps match the approach to the issue being addressed, whether that is guilt, relationship strain, or coping with life changes.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, use online work to help people maintain continuity of support while they juggle everyday life.
