About Lisa
Lisa Lewis is a counsellor registered with the BACP in the United Kingdom and has five years of clinical experience. She works with adults feeling stuck by stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and parenting strain, ADHD and autism-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with guilt and shame and with questions about identity and intimacy.
In sessions she listens without judgement and helps people put words to confusing feelings. Conversations are practical and focused on what is happening now. She draws on client-centred ways of working to prioritise each person’s perspective and pace.
Lisa also uses elements of mindfulness to help people notice their thoughts and bodily reactions. That can make strong feelings easier to tolerate and respond to. She brings psychodynamic thinking into the room to look at patterns that repeat across relationships and time.
She uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, manageable changes and to build on what already works. Together these approaches help people who carry guilt or shame to make sense of why those feelings are so persistent and to try different ways of responding.
Sessions are straightforward and conversational. Lisa explains options and helps people choose the next step. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session through the online pathway.
Approaches used in online sessions
Lisa commonly works from a client-centred framework, which means the conversation focuses on the person’s own views and priorities and the therapist follows the client’s pace. This approach helps when someone needs to feel heard and to bring clarity to difficult emotions.She also uses mindfulness techniques to teach noticing of thoughts, feelings and physical reactions. Those skills can help with strong emotions such as guilt or anxiety by creating more choice in how to respond. A solution-focused approach looks for small, practical changes that make day-to-day life more manageable and helps set clear short-term goals.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and they will decide together what to try first. That collaborative conversation helps shape later sessions and keeps the focus on what matters most to the client.
