Ariana Luisa , NCPS

Ariana Luisa is a counsellor who uses a humanistic, client-centred way of working to help people make sense of their feelings and relationships. She holds NCPS accreditation from the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society and works with adults by video, phone, live chat, or messaging.

Ariana focuses on exploring emotions, memories and unconscious patterns that shape day-to-day life. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and body image issues, and the impact of trauma and abuse.

Her approach is open-ended and exploratory. Sessions aim to help people notice patterns, better understand their responses, and make choices that reflect their values. She encourages clients to lead the pace, while offering a listening presence and reflective feedback.

Ariana draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences influence the present. She also uses existential perspectives to help people clarify meaning and direction, and trauma-focused ways of working when addressing harm that still affects functioning.

With four years of professional experience, she supports people facing career strain, compassion fatigue, parenting challenges, and life transitions such as separation or bereavement. Sessions are offered in English to people in the United Kingdom and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person in front of the counsellor. It encourages people to lead the conversation so they feel heard and make choices that fit their life. Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence current reactions and relationships; it can help when someone wants to understand recurring difficulties. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on the effects of harm and on strategies to reduce distress and improve coping when memories or symptoms are impacting daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ariana will talk with each person about their goals, needs and preferences and together decide what methods to try. That collaborative planning means the approach can change as therapy moves forward to match what helps most.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let the person and counsellor see non-verbal cues and hold deeper conversations. Phone sessions and short live chat exchanges can fit into busy days or when bandwidth is limited. Text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions and quick check-ins when needed. These formats make counselling easier to access across the United Kingdom and help people fit support around their everyday life.
