A collaborative approach to therapy
I believe therapy should never be one-size-fits-all. Every person brings their own experiences, strengths and challenges, which is why I tailor each session to your individual needs and goals.
Together, we will decide whether counselling, clinical hypnotherapy or an integrated approach is the best fit for you. Therapy moves at your pace, with you remaining in control throughout.
Alongside exploring your experiences, I also help you understand what may be happening psychologically and physiologically. By combining compassionate support with practical tools and evidence-informed approaches, my aim is to help you develop greater self-awareness, build resilience and create meaningful, lasting change.

Meet your therapist
I’m Louiza Leneghan, a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, Clinical Hypnotherapist and the founder of Empowering Minds.
I offer a compassionate, collaborative space where you can explore what is happening for you without judgement or pressure. My approach is tailored to you, drawing on counselling, hypnotherapy, psychoeducation and practical therapeutic tools depending on what feels most helpful.
Before becoming a therapist, I worked as a qualified teacher, which helped shape my interest in people, communication and personal growth. Today, I support adults, young people and children with concerns including anxiety, stress, burnout, low self-esteem, trauma, grief and relationship difficulties.
My aim is not to tell you what to do, but to help you understand yourself more fully, recognise your strengths and feel better equipped to move forward.
Online Therapy
Online sessions are available through Google Meet, allowing you to access therapy from your own private space. Online therapy can offer greater flexibility and may suit you if you live further away, have limited mobility or simply prefer to attend from home.

“Louiza has been a key part of my recovery after many years of dealing with negative memories and mindsets surrounding several difficult aspects of my past. I knew from our first discovery call that she would be wonderful. I have always felt heard and respected, and never been in any doubt that Louiza was rooting for me all the way. She is truly remarkable, and I’m grateful to have met her.”

“Louiza immediately made me feel comfortable and relaxed, and talking to her about my anxieties helped me put things into perspective. This was my first experience of hypnotherapy and, although I was sceptical, Louiza helped me challenge irrational thoughts. She is completely non-judgemental and a pleasure to talk to.”

“After seven years of driving practice and four failed tests, I genuinely believed I would never pass. Working with Louiza changed everything. Each session left me feeling calmer, more confident and in control rather than my anxiety controlling me. Thanks to our work together, I went into my test with confidence, focus and a sense of calm I never thought possible. The sessions also gave me tools I can use in everyday life.”
