About Lisa
Lisa Oxley is a counsellor with ten years' professional experience working in the United Kingdom. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and challenges with self-esteem. She also helps with addiction concerns, anger, grief and parenting worries.

Additional areas of attention include abandonment, blended family issues, caregiver stress and codependency.
She also supports people dealing with domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction and problems with guilt and shame. Practical coping strategies and clearer communication are common themes in her work. She prioritises steady skill building in areas such as emotional regulation and boundary-setting.
Sessions may include coaching-style input when helpful to reach personal goals. Lisa is registered with NCPS. Her practice uses formats that suit different lives, such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches online and how they help
Evidence-based techniques are used in ways that are simple to understand and apply. One common approach focuses on building practical coping skills for stress and anxiety, teaching steps people can use when they notice worrying thoughts or intense feelings. This helps with day-to-day management and reduces overwhelm.Another helpful approach centres on improving communication and problem solving for relationship and family-related struggles. Sessions may practise clearer expression of needs, boundary-setting and ways to manage conflict more calmly. This kind of work often supports people dealing with blended family issues, commitment concerns or caregiver stress.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options and together they will try techniques that fit the person’s goals and preferences. Adjustments are made as progress is reviewed so the work stays relevant and useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer, in-depth conversations while phone calls can work well for check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text help people fit short sessions into busy days or keep a running dialogue between meetings. These options give flexibility and make it easier to attend sessions from different places and schedules.
