About Lisa

Lisa Wan uses a person-centred and integrative approach to counselling. She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, trauma and other concerns in ordinary language. Sessions are aimed at helping someone make sense of what they are facing and find practical steps to feel steadier.

She brings nine years of counselling experience and a background in holistic therapy that began in 1998. That combination shapes a practice that values both emotional processing and everyday wellbeing.

Background and approach

She pays attention to how life events, physical health and relationships interact with mental health. Her work often focuses on anxiety, depression, grief and trauma, and also covers issues such as addictions, relationship and intimacy-related problems, sleep difficulties, anger and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with chronic pain or illness, codependency, dissociation and workplace stress.

Lisa uses approaches such as attachment-based work, mindfulness, solution-focused strategies and trauma-informed methods. These help with understanding patterns, building coping skills and calming overwhelming reactions. The style is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, practises in the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English. Ongoing professional development and clinical supervision are part of how she keeps her practice current and reflective.

How Lisa’s approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and emotions. Online sessions use this to identify repetitive ways of relating and to build different, healthier responses to stress and conflict.

Mindfulness therapy teaches simple, short practices to bring attention into the present moment. These techniques can reduce anxiety, help with sleep and make intense feelings easier to sit with during daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then decide together which methods to try. This collaborative process means plans can change as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their routine. Video is useful for fuller conversation and non-verbal cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging works well for short check-ins or for people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or mobility challenges.
