About Lisa

Lisa Williams has worked as a counsellor in the United Kingdom for 18 years. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and uses that experience to guide people through stressful and painful times. She focuses on common problems such as stress, anxiety and depression.

She also helps people who have experienced trauma or abuse and those coping with major life changes. Parenting concerns and attachment issues are part of her regular work too.

Background and approach

Lisa adopts a client-centred way of working. She listens first and follows the person’s pace. Conversations are tailored to each person, with practical steps agreed together as needed.

Her background includes supporting people facing chronic illness, caregiver strain, relationship breakdown and money worries. She also addresses struggles like guilt, shame, isolation and problems with body image. Sessions aim to help people feel heard and make manageable changes.

Lisa describes the process as collaborative - she supports people to build coping skills and clearer thinking. Small steps are used to tackle panic, mood swings and overwhelming stress.

How client-centred therapy works online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than on labels or strict techniques. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what they hear and helps people to find their own solutions. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, parenting stress and for people recovering from trauma as it builds trust and self-understanding.

The right way of working is discovered together. Lisa will discuss goals, preferences and how you prefer to communicate. That means the shape of sessions can change over time to match what you need, whether that is shorter check-ins or deeper weekly work.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and messaging work well for brief updates, reflective notes or when writing feels easier than talking.

These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, childcare or other commitments. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt tools and exercises to each format so practical progress can continue regardless of where someone is based.
