About Lisa

Lisa Ellerton is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She offers a calm, friendly space where people can talk through worries and confusing feelings. Lisa aims to make the first steps into counselling straightforward and supportive.

She works with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship difficulties, and helps people manage life changes such as bereavement or separation.

Background and approach

Lisa also has experience supporting people facing chronic illness, caring responsibilities, and the emotional impact of cancer. Practical, steady support is offered rather than quick fixes. Lisa has worked with neurodivergent people and understands how sensory differences and social challenges can affect mood and anxiety.

She can help explore how those experiences fit into daily life and relationships. Her approach is patient and paced to the individual. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

This gives scope to choose a way of meeting that feels comfortable and manageable. People who want a warm, genuine space to reflect will find a straightforward style with Lisa. She helps clients break concerns into smaller steps and works alongside them to find practical ways forward.

To begin, a short online matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to the therapist's availability. The subscription-based sessions can be cancelled at any time.

How evidence-based approaches work online

Many of the approaches used are focused on practical change and understanding feelings. One common method helps people recognise and respond differently to anxious thoughts and unhelpful behaviours; it aims to reduce worry and build coping skills for daily life. Another approach concentrates on exploring past losses and attachments to make current relationships and reactions easier to understand and manage. These techniques are applied in straightforward language and with tasks that can be practised between sessions.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The counsellor will work collaboratively to identify what fits a person's goals and preferences. Together they review what helps most and adjust the way they meet and what they focus on as therapy progresses.

Online sessions include video calls, phone conversations, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation across distance. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or a shorter check-in when time is limited. Live chat and text messages suit people who prefer typing or need flexible ways to reflect between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work with a registered professional from different locations.
