Lisa Bell, BACP

Lisa Bell is a UK qualified integrative counsellor who combines a structured professional training with a person-centred ethos. She holds a BA (Hons) first class degree, which denotes an undergraduate degree awarded with first class honours, and the BACP credential (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). With three years of clinical experience, she has developed specialist skills supporting people facing stress, anxiety, and LGBT related concerns, as well as trauma and abuse.

Her practice also includes work with depression, bereavement, relationship difficulties, addiction, rape, and domestic abuse, reflecting a broad commitment to helping people navigate emotional and relational challenges. Lisa approaches each person as the expert of their own story, believing that clients bring strengths that can be mobilised to overcome the issues that trouble them. She frames the start of therapy as a courageous first step toward a more fulfilling and balanced life and offers steady support throughout that process.

Lisa aims to create a collaborative environment where practical coping strategies and longer term personal goals can be explored. Her integrative orientation allows her to adapt evidence-based therapeutic techniques to the individual needs of clients, helping them find clearer pathways through stress, loss, relationship strain, and other life difficulties.

Lisa uses an integrative approach that blends techniques to suit each person - drawing on her formal training to tailor interventions that fit individual needs and goals. This integrative method helps when problems span mood, relationships, and daily functioning by adapting strategies to what works best for the client.

She also applies trauma-informed methods when working with people affected by abuse or traumatic events, focusing on stabilising symptoms and building coping resources before addressing more distressing material. For concerns such as grief or depression, Lisa offers supportive therapeutic work that helps clients process loss and rediscover routines and meaning.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lisa works together with clients to identify priorities, trial techniques, and adjust the plan over time so the therapy matches their preferences, circumstances, and progress. Licensed professionals and therapists can offer different pathways, and Lisa aims to guide clients toward the best fit for their situation.

Online therapy with Lisa is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit therapy around work, family, and daily life. These options make it easier to access consistent support from wherever the client is located and to continue work between sessions when that is helpful.
