Louise Perry Integrative Arts Psychotherapist  Louise Perry

Integrative Arts Psychotherapist (HCPC, BACP)

Hello, my name is Louise Perry and I am an Integrative Art Psychotherapist who works with adults.

I am currently available to work online with clients across the UK, and in-person with clients in London – including at HQ Therapy Rooms in Haggerston, Hackney, E8.

I have an MA in Integrative Art Psychotherapy from the Institute For Arts in Therapy & Education (IATE) as well as an MA in Communication Design from St. Martins.

I also have a long career history of working within the high pressured design and technology industry.

My life and therapeutic experience include 22 years of 12-step recovery and four years working in a Harley Street addiction treatment centre that focuses on all forms of addiction and various NHS and community settings.

You do not need to be good at art to work with me and get the benefits of art therapy. In my sessions, I offer the art as tools to help explore and unravel your unconscious thoughts and feelings.

The work can sometimes be challenging but together we will find creative ways to explore YOU and the self-limiting feelings and behaviours that may be detrimental to your happiness.

My own journey has taken me from patient to therapist and this allows me to deeply empathise having experienced and worked through my own issues.

I know what it’s like to feel lost, confused, sad, misunderstood and the desperation that these feelings can bring. I believe that everybody makes sense when you understand their background and that where we come from does not have to define who we are in the world today.

Recovery and freedom from negative thoughts and behaviours are possible – I am living proof of that.

I am available to work online or in person and you can contact me to arrange a free assessment using my email address [email protected], through my website www.louiseperry.com, or use the form on the HQ website (below).

I have a sliding scale of fees depending on your financial obligations which we can discuss during the initial assessment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Should I Seek Therapy?

Many people, new to this type of help, believe that they need to be suffering from “mental illness” or serious “psychological problems”, or be in crisis in order for therapy and counselling to be appropriate for them. This is a common misconception; anyone can benefit from therapy when it comes to helping you deal with your personal feelings and problems, make positive changes in your life, and understand yourself better.

So what is therapy and counselling? If you’re new to this world then the first steps can sometimes be the most difficult. Therapy can be a very effective treatment for a whole range of personal problems covering areas from physical and emotional problems, different types of behavioural disorders, through to human sexuality issues and a host of wellbeing and complementary therapy techniques.

Any problem you have that is causing you concern, anxiety or distress is a valid and appropriate reason to reach out and find a therapist and talk to them about it. Far from something to be ashamed of, acknowledging your vulnerability and asking for help is a sign of maturity and strength.

If you feel that you have a desire and are committed to making changes in your life in order to overcome your current problems and achieve more long-term satisfaction, psychological wellbeing and personal fulfilment, then you are ready to seek therapy. We are here to help you work through a wide range of therapy issues that might be troubling you.

Will Information About Me Be Safe & Secure?

It is quite normal to be hesitant when it comes to sharing private and intimate information about yourself with a stranger. You may fear that you will receive judgment from your therapist, or that your therapist will share your details with others.

HQ Therapy Rooms takes your privacy and confidentiality very seriously. Our therapists are required to keep everything said in therapy sessions between you, just like your doctor is required to keep your records private.

For therapy to be effective, there must be unconditional trust built between you and your therapist, and this relies on a shared understanding of confidentiality. It applies to the outside world as well: it is standard practice for therapists not to acknowledge their clients if they run into them outside of the therapy rooms in order to help protect their client’s confidentiality. Read our full privacy policy for more information.

Can I Contact You For Advice About Getting Therapy?

Talking about your thoughts and feelings with a supportive therapist can often make you feel better and help you face your problems. It feels good to be listened to and to know that someone cares about you and wants to help. It is important that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and can build a trusting relationship to help you make positive changes in your life.

But how do you know what type of therapy is right for you? Taking the first steps in finding the right therapist can be the biggest hurdle for newcomers, so we have made it easy. Simply fill out the form below in confidence, and one of our fully qualified referral therapists can work with you to make sure you connect with the right practitioner and receive the correct therapy and counselling services you require.
