About Louise
Louise Flory helps people who are facing grief and loss.
She is a warm and steady presence for those coping with bereavement, and she also supports people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment difficulties, blended family issues, cancer, communication problems, family of origin wounds, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, questions about life purpose, post-traumatic stress, women’s issues and young adult challenges.
Louise is BACP, which means she is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Background and approach
She has worked for more than 25 years in the charity sector, including roles at Mind and organisations that support bereaved people and adults who experienced sexual abuse in childhood. Those roles shaped a practical, down-to-earth way of working. Her background includes initial psychodynamic training and ongoing professional development.
Recent courses include a Barnardo's Certificate in Adoption Support Counselling and an advanced grief and loss certificate. She draws on that learning and long experience when talking things through with people. Sessions are offered with warmth and empathy.
Louise aims to put people at ease, listen without rushing and help them find clearer footing after loss or difficult life events. She works at a pace each person can manage and focuses on practical ways to cope day to day. People who come for support can expect straightforward conversation, reflective listening and help to name emotions and next steps.
Over many years she has supported a wide range of people through both recent bereavement and older wounds.

Focus areas and approaches
What Louise works with
Everything Louise lists, in their own terms.
Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options with each person and agree which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as understanding grows.
Online formats used include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful when face-to-face conversation and visual cues help the work. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or suit people who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins, reflection over time and flexibility for people with busy or changing schedules. These options make it easier to access therapy when travel or time are barriers and allow continuity of support across different life demands.
