Background and approach

She emphasises helping people identify their own solutions and build confidence in taking steps forward. Her background includes working with young people in alternative provision as a counsellor. That work has given experience supporting people with additional learning needs and those whose education has become non-mainstream because of personal circumstances.

Lisa also has extensive experience around domestic abuse and the effects of narcissistic behaviour. She uses that experience to help people unpack difficult patterns and regain a sense of control over their lives. Practically, she offers a range of session types to fit different needs.

Evening appointments can be arranged by request. People who want to start therapy follow a simple matching process to book sessions and arrange times that suit them.

How online approaches and EMDR can help

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own experience and priorities. The therapist listens without directing the conversation and helps the person find their own solutions, which can suit many life and relationship concerns.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often called EMDR, involves guided bilateral stimulation while recalling distressing memories. It is used to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and related anxiety symptoms.

Solution-focused therapy looks at small, practical steps and what is already working. It helps set clear, achievable goals and builds on strengths to create change more quickly.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the person's goals, and adjust the plan as work progresses. The aim is to find what helps most for the issues being brought to sessions.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation from different locations. Phone sessions work well when a quieter space or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when writing feels easier than speaking.
