About Lisa

Lisa Roberts is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, parenting strain, low self-esteem, depression and addiction. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma, intimacy concerns, sleeping and eating difficulties, anger, career changes and issues related to ageing and geriatric difficulties. Lisa works in English and accepts international clients.

Her approach is straightforward and conversational. She listens without judgement and aims to help people name what matters most to them. Sessions focus on practical steps that people can try between appointments as well as on understanding how past experiences shape current feelings.

Lisa draws on client-centred work and uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Existential ideas, mindfulness and motivational interviewing to tailor sessions. That means she pays attention to each person’s preferences, helps spot patterns of unhelpful thinking, brings present-moment awareness into sessions, and supports motivation to change. The mix is adjusted to what a person finds useful.

She has nine years of experience recorded for this profile and holds BACP as a credential. Prior roles include counselling within organisations and charities, and running courses in mental health first aid and self-care. This background informs a practical style and confidence with a wide range of life concerns.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule appointments based on the therapist’s availability. Costs vary with location and the service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own priorities and on creating a respectful space to talk. Online sessions using this approach centre the conversation on what the person wants to address and follow their pace and concerns.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. In online CBT the therapist helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical experiments between sessions to shift those patterns.

Mindfulness work brings attention to the present moment through simple exercises. Delivered remotely, these exercises can be practised in short bursts and discussed together during sessions to build steady habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and will adapt the mix as therapy progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into busy days, reduces travel time, and makes it easier to maintain continuity while juggling commitments. Others prefer different arrangements; the therapist will discuss practicalities and help decide what best fits a person's routine and aims.
