How Lisa's Approaches Work Online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. The counsellor offers empathy and acceptance while the person leads the pace and topics, which helps with issues like grief, anxiety and relationship stress.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational style that helps people weigh their options and find their own reasons to change. It is useful for goals such as improving sleep, addressing eating or substance-related concerns, and making steady life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts her style as progress and priorities change, so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when people prefer visual contact. Phone sessions are useful when video is not possible or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, journalling between sessions, or people who prefer typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
