I spent close to 11 months working with Lisa, and from the beginning she made the sessions feel like a safe and welcoming space. I was able to share thoughts and feelings that I hadn't been able to before and at no point did she make me feel judged or criticised. Overall, the sessions with Lisa led to me making some big changes in my life, she supported me in a way that I didn't feel pressure to do or change anything I wasn't ready for, which has made me feel like the changes can be lasting.

she/her
Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward? Perhaps you're carrying a weight that’s hard to put into words, or navigating a chapter of life that feels heavy or confusing. Whatever it is you're facing, you don’t have to do it alone.
Personal Touch
I have a particular passion for working with people navigating relationship or parenting challenges, including those who are single or separating parents. This is something I bring to the work with both professional insight and personal understanding.
Client Focus
I work with individuals aged 16 and up, and have supported people from a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences. Some of the areas I work with include anxiety, grief and loss, domestic abuse, low self-esteem, relationship and family struggles, college and university transitions, childhood/attachment trauma, identity and abandonment wounds.
These experiences can be incredibly complex and difficult, but I’ve seen how transformative it can be to begin making sense of them in a supportive space. Our work together won’t be about quick fixes or pushing through pain. Instead, we’ll create room for curiosity, reflection, and healing, so you can feel more connected to yourself and more empowered in your life.
Background
I am Humanistic and Integratively trained, and my approach is grounded in empathy, presence, and respect for your unique story. I have been working with clients since 2022 and have a Bsc in Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Therapy Approach
I offer a calm, compassionate space where you can slow down, feel safe, and be truly heard. Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, confusing, or lonely, especially when you're carrying pain that’s difficult to name or share. My role is to support you in gently exploring what’s going on beneath the surface, at a pace that feels right for you.

Testimonials
Client Feedback
I’ve been going to sessions with Lisa for almost a year and a half, after struggling with the effects of childhood trauma I needed someone to help me unpack everything and help to improve self esteem, anxiety, depression and relationships with others. Lisa has been a wonderful therapist and has truly helped me to change my life, how I feel about myself, understand my life experiences and understand how to better connect with others. She creates a warm and accepting environment, recommend.
