About Lisa

Lisa McCormack is a counsellor who helps people facing anxiety, stress and life changes. She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where someone can talk through what feels overwhelming and start finding clearer ways forward. Lisa’s BACP registration is noted as part of her background and practice in the United Kingdom.

She brings three years of experience working with problems like low self-esteem, grief, depression and panic. Many people come with worries about boundaries, people-pleasing, or recovering from emotionally difficult relationships.

Background and approach

Lisa focuses on small, practical steps that can reduce daily distress and build more confidence over time. Her approach combines client-centred talking with cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness exercises. That mix lets conversations be warm and empathic, while also creating concrete tools to change unhelpful thinking and habits.

Sessions aim to balance listening with practical strategies suited to each person’s needs. Lisa has particular interest in helping those who have experienced emotional abuse, burnout or major life transitions. She also works with concerns such as chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image and feelings of isolation.

Her work often involves looking at attachment and how past relationships affect present choices. Sessions are available in English and can be done remotely with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to availability.

How Lisa uses talked therapy and practical tools online

Lisa offers client-centred work that prioritises being listened to and understood. This approach focuses on the client’s experience and helps people name feelings, reflect on choices, and decide what they want to change.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. CBT provides clear exercises and steps to help reduce anxiety, panic and low mood by changing unhelpful thinking patterns.

Mindfulness techniques are included to help with stress, rumination and grounding. These are simple practices that bring attention back to the present and reduce overwhelming worry.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. Lisa will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and circumstances, checking in and adapting the plan as needed.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives or limited mobility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from different locations, phone sessions work well when video isn’t possible, and live chat or text messaging suit shorter check-ins or those who prefer typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or fluctuating energy levels.
