About Lisa

Lisa Williams is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 18 years of professional experience and a BACP credential. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression and the fallout from trauma and abuse. Lisa also supports people facing parenting challenges and those coping with major life changes.

She keeps conversations straightforward and practical. Sessions are shaped around each person’s situation and goals. Lisa listens first, then helps identify small steps that can ease daily pressure and improve relationships at home.

Background and approach

Her work often covers attachment and abandonment concerns, relationship communication problems, and the emotional impact of divorce or separation. She also supports people dealing with chronic illness or caregiver stress, body image worries, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation. Lisa uses a client-centred approach, which means sessions follow the person’s lead while she offers warmth and non-judgemental feedback.

This style is useful when someone needs a steady, respectful space to make sense of difficult feelings and choices. She accepts international clients and works in English. Practical session options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles and schedules.

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.

Online support

Client-centred support delivered online

Client-centred therapy focuses on building a respectful, non-judgemental relationship. The counsellor listens closely and helps the person organise thoughts and feelings, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, parenting concerns and life changes.

The work is collaborative. The therapist and client decide together what to try, adjusting the approach as goals and needs become clearer. That makes it easier to try small changes and see what helps most.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and text messaging can suit quick reflections, ongoing support between sessions, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
