About Luisa

Luisa Prosser is a BACP accredited counsellor in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. She supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and family concerns, parenting worries, grief, addiction and codependency-related problems. Luisa also works with issues around identity, sleeping difficulties, anger and low self-esteem.

She has worked with clients who have ADHD, autism and other special educational needs and those challenges often affect confidence and life choices. Luisa helps people better understand a diagnosis, spot personal strengths and tackle practical obstacles that get in the way of study, work or relationships. She offers a listening space for questions about sexuality and gender identity and for people coping with parental conflict, separation or loss.

Her original training was in psychodynamic counselling and over the years she has added cognitive behavioural techniques, client-centred ways of working and solution-focused tools. Sessions typically begin with an assessment of what brought someone to therapy and the short-term goals they want to work on. Luisa then agrees a practical plan with each person.

In sessions she uses clear, direct conversation and exercises aimed at changing thoughts and patterns that cause stress. She also draws on reflective work about early relationships and practical strategies to manage mood and sleep. Her aim is to help people find a clearer sense of self and steadier ways of coping.

Luisa commonly works by phone, video or live chat. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first session where they discuss aims and how to proceed.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred therapy focuses on listening and helping someone find their own answers. Online this means the counsellor offers attentive listening and reflection to help a person notice what matters and where change might start. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, works with thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. In an online session CBT tools can include tracking thoughts, short practical exercises and step-by-step plans to test new ways of reacting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist discusses goals and preferences and then suggests which methods to try. Decisions are made together and can change as progress is reviewed, so people keep a say in how sessions move forward.

Session formats should be confirmed before booking. The profile notes use of video calls, phone and live chat in prior work, so check current options when you book. Online sessions can fit into busy lives by avoiding travel, making it easier to join during a lunch break, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or choosing phone contact if visual connection is difficult. These practical choices help people keep therapy as part of everyday life rather than add extra strain.
