Lisa brings a calm, interactive style grounded in empathy and compassion, aiming to create a non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored openly. She supports people facing anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, and those seeking greater self-awareness and personal development. Her work also addresses issues such as stress, sleep problems, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.

Lisa holds NCPS, which indicates a professional qualification in counselling and psychotherapy. She is passionate about guiding clients through meaningful change and helping them move forward toward emotional wellbeing and practical solutions. She looks forward to supporting individuals on the next steps of their journey.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathetic environment where the client leads the pace and content of sessions. This approach helps people who want to explore feelings, build self-understanding, and make changes at their own speed. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is often used for anxiety, low mood, and stress-related concerns because it offers practical strategies and skills. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help people access resources for change, often supporting issues such as sleep difficulties, habit change, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lisa will work collaboratively with each client to decide which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape treatment plans that feel relevant and workable for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to receive support around work, family, or geographical constraints, while still working with licensed professionals and therapists who will guide progress and adapt approaches as needed.
