About Lisa

Lisa Anderson helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She supports those coping with relationship and intimacy issues, grieving, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD and wider life changes. Lisa works from a calm, person-centred stance and aims to make sessions feel kind and respectful.

She brings five years of professional counselling experience in the United Kingdom and draws on a long personal practice of mindfulness, meditation and somatic awareness. This personal background shapes how she notices bodily sensations alongside thoughts and feelings during sessions.

Background and approach

Lisa uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-focused ideas and emotionally focused work to help people notice patterns and make different choices. She listens without judgement and follows each person's pace while gently encouraging new ways of responding to difficult moments.

Sessions often include guided attention to physical sensation, breath and present-moment experience so people can reconnect with their own capacity to regulate emotion. Lisa values a therapeutic relationship based on respect, sensitivity and compassion as a place where real change can begin. People who contact her can expect a collaborative process.

She aims to understand practical goals and works with clients to find steps that suit their life. Lisa is registered with BACP and offers sessions in English from the United Kingdom.

Ways of working Lisa names

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

Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online

Lisa often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-based action. ACT supports working through avoidance and building small steps towards what matters to you.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand why they react in certain ways and how to create safer ways of relating within important connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will discuss your needs and goals and together you will choose methods that suit your preferences. She treats the process as a collaborative journey, adjusting pace and techniques as you go.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for face-to-face conversation, phone can be useful if bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can fit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options help fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical steps and emotional understanding.
