About Lisa

Lisa Roberts BACP is a counsellor and psychotherapist in the United Kingdom with nine years' experience. She works with people who are facing stress, anxiety and a wide range of life challenges including relationship and parenting concerns. She also supports those dealing with self-esteem, addiction, grief, trauma and related issues such as eating, sleeping and anger difficulties.

Her way of working is down-to-earth and person-focused. Sessions centre on the client's concerns, using talking, reflection and practical strategies. She draws on client-centred principles alongside cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused ideas to help people notice patterns and try small changes.

Lisa has a background in person-centred counselling and a level 5 diploma in Person-Centred Counselling and Psychotherapy. She also offers CBT and solution-focused work and has developed mental health first aid and self-care courses. Her BACP credential is listed as BACP.

She has experience supporting young people, parents and adults across a range of settings, including charities and organisations. That practical work includes creative counselling approaches and using creative materials when that suits the client.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and practical. Lisa helps clients set clear goals, test small changes and reflect on what works. The emphasis is on useful conversation and manageable steps rather than technical language.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what the client says, helping people clarify their feelings and choices. It suits issues where someone wants to be heard and to make sense of their experience.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to test different ways of thinking and behaving. It is often used for stress, anxiety and difficulties like sleeping or low mood.

Motivational Interviewing helps people who are unsure about change by exploring ambivalence and supporting small, achievable steps forward.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That choice can change over time as progress is reviewed and new needs emerge.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a day and reduce travel time. Some formats also suit shorter check-ins or conversations without video, and others work better when a longer conversation or practical exercises are needed. Registered or accredited professionals will help organise sessions to fit daily routines and goals.
