About Lisa

Lisa Williams is a counsellor registered with the BACP who has practised in the United Kingdom for 18 years. She focuses on everyday pressures like stress and anxiety, and on life events that knock people off course. Lisa aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where people can talk about what matters most to them.

Her work commonly addresses trauma and abuse, depression, and the challenges that come with parenting. She also helps people who are coping with major life changes and who are dealing with panic, mood swings or long‑running worry. She tailors conversations to each person rather than using a one‑size‑fits‑all approach.

Lisa has additional experience with attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, and the strain of chronic illness or pain. She can help people handle communication problems, separation or divorce, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation or a loss of purpose.

Her stated approach is client‑centred therapy, which keeps the person’s perspective at the heart of sessions. She describes the work as collaborative and empowering, with practical discussion and a clear focus on the client’s goals.

People who want to start will complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Lisa’s client‑centred approach informs online therapy

Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening, reflection and following the client’s lead. Sessions aim to give people space to say what matters and to explore feelings at their own pace. This approach can be helpful for stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, depression and recovery from trauma because it centres the person’s experience rather than imposing solutions.

The therapist will work together with the client to find the best way forward. That means discussing goals, trying different ways of working, and adjusting plans if something does not feel helpful. The client’s preferences and everyday needs guide choices about the pace and topics covered in sessions.

The practical benefits of online work should be confirmed before booking, as the biography does not list specific session formats. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check‑ins when needed. If you need clarification about the formats offered, confirm current options during the matching or scheduling step so you know what will work best for you.
