About Lisa
Lisa Tabanivesikula is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship strains, parenting pressures and other life changes. Sessions are presented in a calm, conversational way aimed at clear, manageable steps.
Lisa uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. She draws on client-centred ways of working, cognitive behavioural techniques, hypnotherapy, psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused tools. She talks through what is happening now and how past patterns may be shaping current reactions.
In sessions Lisa encourages practical adjustments alongside emotional reflection. That can mean identifying small routine changes for sleep or mood, testing out different ways of responding to conflict, or practising new ways to think about stressful thoughts. The work often moves between short-term problem solving and looking at longer-standing patterns.
She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, addiction concerns, body image and issues linked to chronic illness. Lisa offers help around parenting stress and matters connected to relationships and intimacy, without implying any one-size-fits-all solution.
People who meet her will find an approach that aims to be collaborative. She asks about what a person hopes to change, then tries methods suited to those goals. Practical steps and reflective conversation are mixed so the sessions feel focused and usable in everyday life.
How sessions work
How Lisa’s approaches translate to online work
Lisa commonly uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in sessions. Client-centred work means the conversation is led by what the person brings and focuses on understanding experience and priorities. Cognitive behavioural work looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and tries practical changes that can improve mood and coping.She also uses hypnotherapy when appropriate, which involves guided relaxation and imagery to support change in habits or emotional responses. These methods are useful for issues like anxiety, sleep problems, habits and adjusting unhelpful thinking patterns.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will talk about goals, try a method that fits those goals, and adapt if something does not feel helpful. Clients can expect some practical tasks between sessions as well as time to reflect during meetings.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around parenting and work. It also allows for shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, which can be useful on busy days.
