About Lisa
Lisa Harvey is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience and a BACP credential. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting pressures, trauma and abuse, and family conflict. Her manner is respectful and compassionate, and she aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and clear.
In sessions she listens closely and adapts conversations to each person’s needs.
Background and approach
She helps clients talk through what is most worrying them and then identifies practical ways to reduce daily strain. That can mean learning ways to manage anxious thoughts, finding better ways to communicate with relatives, or building routines that ease low mood. Her approach is collaborative.
She and the client set goals together and check progress along the way. Plans are straightforward and focused on things people can try between sessions. Work often involves trying new skills, reflecting on patterns, and practising different responses to stressful situations.
She is experienced supporting people who carry shame, guilt, or social anxiety and those who feel isolated or unsure about life purpose. She also offers help with forgiveness and rebuilding trust after hurt. Sessions aim to be practical, paced to the client, and rooted in everyday language.
Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and clearer thinking. One approached used helps people recognise and challenge unhelpful thought patterns that fuel anxiety and low mood; clients learn simple ways to test and reframe anxious thoughts. Another approach centres on building everyday skills such as calmer breathing, step-by-step exposure to feared situations, and better communication with family members to reduce conflict and isolation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then try methods that fit those aims. This is collaborative - plans are adjusted as progress is made and new issues arise.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper exchanges. Phone sessions can be easier on days with low bandwidth or when a camera feels too much. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, step-by-step coaching, or when writing helps someone reflect. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare, or busy days while keeping focus on practical steps and progress.
