About Lisa
Lisa Howarth is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship concerns. She works with those facing grief, struggles with self-esteem, addictive behaviours, and people coping with life changes. Lisa also supports clients dealing with trauma, intimacy issues and neurodivergence-related challenges.
Her style is warm and down-to-earth. She listens without judgement and aims to create a steady space where people can talk openly. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, building trust, and gently increasing self-compassion.
Background and approach
Lisa draws on client-centred ways of working and uses practical tools from cognitive behavioural approaches to help spot unhelpful thinking and try different responses. Mindfulness techniques and somatic methods are used to help people tune into their bodies and manage anxiety or tension. She is trauma-informed and aware of neurodiversity, and she identifies as an LGBTQIA+ ally.
That means sessions are shaped around each person’s identity and experience rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. With seven years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Lisa offers online therapy from the United Kingdom. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs and routines.

Approaches for online healing and practical change
Lisa combines client-centred work with cognitive behavioural and mindfulness tools. Client-centred therapy focuses on understanding your experience and offering a non-judgemental space where you set the pace and agenda. Cognitive behavioural techniques help identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments to reduce anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention and breathing exercises that can ease rumination and help with sleep and stress.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to use. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video helps keep visual connection for deeper conversation, phone calls can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat can suit short check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caring responsibilities or travel, while still working with registered or accredited professionals and experienced therapists.
