How do we understand our own minds?
Psychotherapeutic counselling rooted in Transactional Analysis, built on the principle that your experience becomes clear when you understand the relationships and systems that shaped you.
Louise works with adult clients, in person in Hove and online, offering long-standing therapeutic relationships built on transparency, collaboration, and a genuine curiosity about how you came to be who you are.
