I enjoy getting to know my clients individually and within the context of their relationship. I get to see my clients' personal growth and witness real change happening right in front of me on a daily basis. Some of my biggest rewards come from watching as couples learn to turn towards each other with increasing warmth, vulnerability and safety, to even sharing relaxed humour during inevitable and healthy disagreements.
I admire the strength of character and courage that is required to participate in counselling. People have a sincere hope that counselling will help them and I honour and value the trust that is put in me.
My therapy style is trauma informed, compassionate, collaborative and educational. All work done together is embarked upon with your best interests and preferences in mind.

My name is Louise Arthur (she/her), I am 42 years old and originally from Melbourne. I have been very privileged in my life to be able to travel as much as I have. Travelling has given me much to be proud of and to be grateful for.
I have had my own challenging life experiences that have led me to become a counsellor and have experienced a deep and long journey of counselling myself. I am fortunate to have a space in my house dedicated just to yoga, breathwork and meditation practice. I draw inspiration from spending time in nature and from the wonderful relationships in my life.
