Her work centres on helping people build motivation and confidence. She talks through coping strategies for life changes and supports those dealing with relationship difficulties, parenting strains and issues around identity.
Background and approach
She also gives attention to trauma, abuse and depression in straightforward, understandable terms. Lisa pays close attention to feelings of shame, guilt and isolation. She helps people address body image concerns, self-harm thoughts and the aftermath of sexual assault with steady, paced conversations.
First responder issues and young adult challenges are also within her focus. Sessions aim to be practical and goal-focused. Lisa works with people to set small steps, test what helps, and adjust the plan as needed.
Her approach is collaborative and respectful of each person's story and pace. People meet Lisa for a mix of short-term problem work and longer-term exploration. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients reduce anxiety, manage stress and rebuild self-worth.
Sessions are delivered in everyday language and focus on real-life change.
Approaches for anxiety and online therapy
Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anxiety and related concerns. One approach focuses on skills training to reduce immediate symptoms - teaching practical breathing, grounding and coping strategies that can be used during stressful moments. This helps when anxiety feels overwhelming and people need tools to steady themselves.Another common approach emphasises working through unhelpful thoughts and patterns. That work involves identifying thoughts that increase worry, testing them in daily life and developing more balanced ways of thinking. It suits people who want to reduce repetitive worry and build long-term confidence.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how you respond to different techniques, then adapt the plan collaboratively. You and the counsellor decide which methods to try and when to change course.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make access easier. Video is useful for a fuller conversation, phone can work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging allows brief check-ins or therapy in short bursts. These options help people fit therapy into busy days and quieten anxiety without long travel.
