About Lisa
Lisa Roberts, BACP counsellor, has nine years' professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship tensions, parenting strain, low self-esteem, depression and addiction. She also helps with grief, trauma and intimacy issues, and supports people dealing with eating, sleeping and anger difficulties.
Her approach is practical and conversational. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what a person wants to change. She draws on client-centred practice to listen without judgement and to follow what matters most to the individual.
Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to help identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of behaving. She also uses elements of Existential and Mindfulness work to help people reflect on values, meaning and present-moment awareness. Motivational Interviewing features when a client wants support to make concrete changes.
Her background includes work with parents, young people and families across charities and organisations. That work included developing mental health first aid and self-care courses, and offering creative counselling using art and other materials when that suits the client.
People who come for help can expect short, clear conversations about goals and small steps to try between sessions. Lisa accepts international clients and sees people in English. Before booking, readers should confirm the current session options available.
How sessions work
How Lisa uses therapeutic approaches online
Client-centred practice focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. It helps adults clarify concerns about parenting, relationships and life transitions by prioritising their goals and choices.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It offers simple exercises and experiments to try between sessions, which can help with anxiety, low mood and unhelpful patterns that affect family life.
Mindfulness work brings attention to present-moment experience through short practices. It can help reduce reactivity, support better sleep and make stressful moments at home feel more manageable.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, and adjust as progress is made.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy family life, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove the need to travel. Registered and accredited professionals can use these benefits to help clients take practical steps between meetings.
