Lou Kemp

Who We Are

At LK Counselling and Psychotherapy, we pride ourselves on providing a safe, non-judgmental, and empathetic space for individuals to explore their thoughts, feelings, and emotions. As an accredited therapist with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and the United Kingdom Register of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (UKRCP), I, Louise Kemp, have extensive experience in working with adults and young people over 16.

Our Services

We offer a range of services, including individual counselling and psychotherapy sessions, which can be conducted in-person, online, or through walking sessions in a rural setting in Gloucestershire. Our approach is integrative, incorporating person-centred and psychodynamic theories to cater to the unique needs of each client.

What We Do

We specialise in helping individuals overcome a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and phobias. Through our work, we empower clients to develop healthy coping mechanisms, reframe negative thought patterns, and enhance their overall well-being.

Eye Movement Integration (EMI) and Emotion Freedom Techniques (EFT)

In addition to traditional counselling and psychotherapy methods, we are trained in the use of EMI and EFT. These evidence-based practices have shown significant success in reducing symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and alleviating phobias. By integrating these neuro-therapies into our practice, we can help clients overcome trauma and related symptoms, promoting a greater sense of peace and well-being.

Our Expertise

With over 20 years of experience in the field, I have worked with clients dealing with a range of issues, from managing the aftermath of trauma to coping with the challenges of aging and living with a life-threatening illness. My work with a national charity supporting bereaved parents has given me a unique understanding of the complexities of grief and loss.

Why Choose Us?

When seeking the support of a therapist, it is essential to find a practitioner who is a good fit for your needs. As an accredited therapist, I am committed to ongoing professional development, ensuring my knowledge and skills stay up-to-date. I am fully insured and registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

Our Philosophy

At LK Counselling and Psychotherapy, we believe that every individual has the capacity to grow and heal. We strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, and work towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
