Lisa Oxley, NCPS

Lisa Oxley is an NCPS-accredited therapist practising in the United Kingdom with 10 years of professional experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. She works with clients who are managing stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, addressing anger and relationship difficulties, and recovering from trauma and abuse. Her practice also covers family and parenting concerns, grief, eating and body-related issues, self-esteem and depression, and the many practical and emotional demands that come with life changes.

Lisa approaches therapy from a strengths-based perspective, recognising that each person is the expert on their own life and already holds resources that can be drawn on during the therapeutic process. She aims to help clients identify those strengths and build practical tools to move forward at a pace that suits them. Her NCPS credential signals a recognised professional accreditation in counselling and psychotherapy, reflecting formal training and adherence to professional standards.

Beginning therapy can feel daunting, and Lisa acknowledges the courage it takes to reach out. She encourages people to feel proud of taking that step and focuses on creating a supportive, collaborative partnership to work toward the changes they seek.

Evidence-guided approaches for online therapy

Lisa Oxley uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours, building practical skills for managing anxiety, low mood, and everyday stress. She also employs trauma-informed methods that support processing difficult experiences and strengthening coping strategies for those affected by abuse or loss. For clients facing addiction or relapse risk, her approach includes structured tools focused on relapse prevention and healthier routines to support recovery.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Lisa works collaboratively with each person to determine what best matches their needs, goals, and preferences. She explores different techniques together with clients and adjusts the plan over time to ensure the work feels useful and aligned with individual priorities.

Online therapy with Lisa is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or mobility limits. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into daily life, and access support from familiar surroundings while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
