About Lisa

Lisa Coleman is a counsellor who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also helps with self-esteem, parenting concerns, relationship and family worries, and issues such as trauma, eating struggles and anger. Lisa identifies practical steps people can take when life feels overwhelming and offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk things through.

She draws from several approaches to tailor therapy to each person. That can include talking through thoughts and behaviours to spot patterns, finding ways to accept difficult feelings, and using goal-focused techniques to change unhelpful habits. Sessions are paced to suit the person and focus on what matters most in daily life.

Lisa holds NCPS and brings three years of clinical experience. Her work is grounded in person-centred values such as trust, honesty and respect for the whole person. She aims to build a therapeutic relationship where people feel heard and able to try new ways of coping.

In practice she blends reflective listening with active strategies. This might mean exploring where difficult reactions began, practising new responses, or using motivational discussion to strengthen commitment to change. The plan is always personalised and revisited as progress is made.

Finding the courage to ask for help is a first step, and Lisa frames therapy as a collaborative process. She supports people to gain clarity, manage symptoms, and move toward a more balanced everyday life.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting held by them, then choosing actions that match your values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) works on spotting thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and testing new ways of responding to reduce distress and improve daily routines. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises a warm, non-judgemental relationship where the person leads the pace and the counsellor mirrors understanding and respect.

Finding the right approach is part of the journey. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and personal style. That choice is reviewed over time so the plan can change if something else would be more helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking, as this profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or offering sessions when in a different country. It can also let people use audio-only meetings when bandwidth is low or they prefer not to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and conversations so therapy remains practical and focused, even when carried out remotely.
