Louize is a highly experienced Consultant Psychologist and a chartered member of the Psychological Society of Ireland with over fourteen years of experience in mental health in both in the private and not-for-profit sector. She is Co-Founder of Prism Therapy Online which was set up to help people in need of mental health support be matched with the right therapist, offering a platform of handpicked chartered psychologists to select from. She has commendably dedicated a large part of her career instigating much needed change to Ireland's mental health system for young people through her work with Jigsaw, The National Centre for Youth Mental Health. Louize is also a very talented musician and the Bassist for the well known Irish Rock Band we love, The Blizzards and she has composed music for film & television.

Now just to let you know, due to some unforeseen circumstances Louize had to bring her gorgeous Italian Mastiff puppy along to the podcast recording. Her puppy is called Stevie, named after Stevie Nicks which is extremely cool and you know, they say, never to work with children and animals but Stevie was very good considering, but you will hear a few whimpers along the way, though I noticed she seemed to whimper when we spoke about the pressures on women's image and menopause, so I felt she was agreeing with us, so Stevie is definitely a feminist!

During our chat we talk about:

- Why anxiety is such a problem

- Social media pressures and disengaging

- Building more confidence

- Dealing with pressures on self-image

- Can people ever really change

- How to stop repeating same mistakes
