About Lisa
Lisa Rowley is a counsellor with six years of practice experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults and young people in independent practice and has also spent time supporting pupils in schools who have experienced domestic abuse. Lisa focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression.
She aims to offer a calm, non-judgemental space where people can share what is on their mind.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and grounded in what matters most to the person sitting opposite her. Lisa listens first, then helps to spot patterns and practical steps that might make daily life easier. Her approach draws on client-centred work and cognitive behavioural ideas to support change in thinking and behaviour.
She also uses EMDR for people with distressing memories and psychodynamic thinking to explore longer-term patterns. Imago relationship ideas may be used when communication and connection are the focus. Lisa has helped people cope with loss, recover from trauma, manage burnout and address relationship difficulties.
She also supports those facing life transitions, chronic health challenges, or struggles with impulse control and guilt. People who come to her often want practical tools and a clear plan alongside a warm listening ear. Lisa encourages gentle progress and works collaboratively so goals feel realistic and personalised.
How Lisa’s approaches work online
Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience first. The therapist listens deeply and helps the client find their own solutions, which is useful for stress, low mood and life decisions. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing small behaviour changes to reduce anxiety and lift mood. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used to work with distressing memories and strong emotional reactions that keep coming back.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will discuss options with each person and agree a plan together. That means trying things that match someone’s goals and adjusting as progress is made. The process is collaborative and paced to what the person needs.
Online sessions offer flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when longer dialogue and visual contact help. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit those who prefer written conversation or need support between calls. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare or mobility constraints while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
