About Lisa

Lisa Roberts, BACP counsellor, has nine years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She supports people with stress, anxiety, relationship and parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression, addictions, LGBT issues, grief and anger among other areas. Lisa helps people talk through current problems and practical next steps in clear, everyday language.

She works from client-centred principles and combines this with cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused ideas. Sessions aim to identify patterns that keep problems going and to test small changes that reduce distress. She also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing when these fit a person's aims.

Clients can expect straightforward conversation and gentle challenge. Lisa uses questions and reflections to help people see choices and rehearse different responses. She offers practical tools such as thought records, brief experiments and grounding exercises for managing strong feelings.

Her background includes developing and leading courses in mental health first aid and self-care for organisations and charities. That work informs her practical approach to everyday pressures, workplace strain and parenting stress.

Lisa has experience with creative counselling and with supporting adoption, attachment and blended family issues. She also works with people coping with chronic illness, body image and eating concerns. When grief, trauma or life transitions are present she helps clients map immediate coping steps and longer-term goals.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. It helps people feel understood and reach their own decisions about how to respond to anger, relationship problems or life changes.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers practical exercises such as thought records and behavioural experiments to test different ways of reacting to anger or stress.

Motivational interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or uncertain about change. It uses straightforward questions to clarify values and build small, achievable steps towards better coping.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences, and adjust as needed over time.

Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, allow shorter focused check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use online appointments to help people maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family and other commitments.
