About Lisa
Lisa Oxley is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with ten years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and parenting pressures. Her focus also includes grief, eating and self-esteem concerns, and coping with life changes.
She frames clients as experts in their own lives and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are conversational and practical. Lisa helps people break large problems into manageable steps and develop ways to cope day to day.
Her approach is straightforward and goal-focused. She supports people dealing with family problems, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and the fallout from separation or divorce. She also addresses codependency, commitment worries, communication and control issues, and feelings of emptiness, guilt or shame.
Lisa has worked with people affected by domestic violence and substance use, and she offers support for eating and food-related issues. She aims to help clients notice patterns and try different responses, rather than rely on one-size-fits-all advice.
Signing up begins with a short matching questionnaire and a first session. Lisa uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary with location. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and make practical changes. One common approach focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can reduce anxiety, low mood and difficulties with eating or addiction. Another approach looks at relationships and communication patterns, helping people improve how they express needs, set boundaries and handle conflict within families.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, listen to your goals and preferences, and try methods that fit your situation. If an approach does not feel helpful, adjustments are made together rather than sticking with a single method.
The practical benefits of working online include easier fitting of sessions into a busy day and fewer interruptions from travel. Online work can make shorter check-ins simpler and can suit people who need a lower-bandwidth option or prefer not to be on camera. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking to make sure they fit your routine.
