Lisa Hughes, BACP

Lisa Hughes is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom.

About Lisa

Lisa Hughes is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom. She has three years of professional experience and a BACP registration. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression.

She aims to make conversations straightforward and non-judgemental. Sessions are intended as a place to talk about thoughts and feelings and to work out practical next steps. Lisa emphasises steady, manageable change rather than rushing to fix everything at once.

Background and approach

Lisa describes her practice as integrative, which means she adapts how she works to suit each person. She also works as a wellbeing officer and brings that experience into sessions when helpful. This practical background can shape how she supports day-to-day coping and routines.

People often bring issues such as abandonment, body image worries, chronic pain or illness, loneliness, narcissistic dynamics, social anxiety and women's issues. Lisa will listen to what matters most and focus on the areas the person wants to change first. She checks messages regularly during the working week and aims to respond promptly.

Lisa does not work at weekends because she reserves that time for family, so messages received then will be answered on Monday. Her approach is collaborative and calm. She works with each person to set goals and to find practical ways to build confidence, reduce anxiety and improve relationships.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online therapy

Lisa uses an integrative approach that draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to suit each person. One commonly used technique focuses on helping people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns. It teaches ways to spot thoughts that raise anxiety or lower mood and to try more balanced alternatives, which can reduce worry and improve confidence.

Another helpful approach targets practical coping skills and daily routines. This involves breaking bigger problems into small tasks, trying new behaviours between sessions and tracking what makes life feel easier. It can be useful for low mood, stress, chronic illness management and sleep difficulties.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences and agree together which techniques to try. Plans are reviewed over time and adjusted when something is not helping.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and reading non-verbal cues. Phone can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text are useful for people who prefer typed conversations or want flexible, frequent brief contacts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and health commitments.
