About Lisa

Lisa Roberts is a BACP-registered counsellor with nine years' experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting pressures, low self-esteem and midlife change. She works with a broad range of concerns including depression, grief, addiction issues, ADHD and trauma. Lisa uses straightforward, conversational therapy to help people sort out what matters most to them and take practical steps forward.

Her approach is warm and person-centred. Sessions focus on what each person needs in plain language. She blends talking therapy with practical tools from cognitive behavioural ideas and motivational techniques to help people change unhelpful patterns.

Lisa has worked across charities and organisations in the United Kingdom, offering counselling to parents, young people and individuals over many years. That background has shaped a flexible style that suits people who prefer a calm, down-to-earth conversation as well as those who want actionable steps between sessions.

She also draws on mindfulness and existential ideas to help people make sense of life changes and find meaning when things feel uncertain. That mix supports people facing midlife decisions, career shifts, relationship crossroads, or struggles with identity.

Practical matters are handled plainly. Sessions follow what the person brings and focus on achievable goals. Clients are invited to set the pace, try short exercises in session, and reflect on progress between meetings.

How different approaches can work online

Client-Centred Therapy prioritises a supportive, listening relationship. It helps people feel heard and to identify their own solutions, which can be useful for dealing with relationship worries or low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behaviour changes. It is often used for anxiety, stress and sleep problems and lends itself to practical exercises that can be done between sessions.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find internal reasons to change and to build motivation for difficult choices. It can help with addictions, career decisions and moving through life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the person. That collaborative process lets the approach be adjusted over time based on what helps most.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight or sessions without video if bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to keep therapy practical and focused while fitting into everyday life.
