Louise Mackintosh Counselling and Psychotherapy

About

People decide to look for therapy for many reasons; stress, anxiety or depression, difficulties in relationships; anything that's stopping them living the life they want. I place importance on helping clients understand the causes, not simply focusing on the symptoms. Ultimately, knowing yourself better is the key to a more fulfilling life, with improved relationships and feeling better within yourself on a day to day basis.

I have a particular interest in working with complex or dysfunctional family dynamics. Often the link between difficulties in the present and such a history isn't obvious until explored with care and compassion.

I have a natural, warm and compassionate style in my therapy, building trust and confidence with insight and humour. The therapeutic relationship is the most important part of the work so I welcome an initial conversation to help you get an idea of my style and I'll aim to give you an idea of how I can help you.

I've undertaken additional training to work with children and young people and work in a school setting alongside my private practice.
