About Louise
Louise Kenny brings 25 years of clinical social work experience to her practice. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Connecticut. Louise meets people where they are and helps them find clearer paths forward when life feels confusing or overwhelming.
She focuses on grief and loss, addiction, LGBT concerns, trauma, relationship stress, anger, and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing aging and geriatric issues, cancer, caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and struggles with guilt or codependency.
Background and approach
Her work often includes practical steps as well as space to tell and make sense of the story behind the problem. Louise prefers an approach that centers the person. She listens first, then collaborates on goals and next steps.
Depending on the situation, she draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral ideas, existential themes, Jungian insights, and solution-focused techniques to match the work to the need. Sessions are conversational and aimed at real change. Some people want short-term tools to handle an immediate crisis.
Others want to look deeper at life meaning or repeated patterns. Louise adapts to both kinds of goals and keeps the process straightforward and humane. Her style is calm, respectful, and grounded.
People who come to her often want to be heard, to reduce painful emotions, and to find a manageable plan. Louise's intent is to help each person turn difficult experience into clearer next steps.

Online support
How therapy approaches guide online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience. A therapist using this approach offers empathy and helps clients clarify their own goals and values, which can help with grief, relationship struggles, and low self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It provides concrete tools and exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior, which can help with anxiety, anger, and addiction challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest methods best suited to those aims. That choice is made together and can change as therapy progresses.
Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through different formats. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can work as a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send updates or process thoughts between sessions. These options provide flexibility so therapy can fit work, caregiving, or health constraints while using the approaches described above.
