About Lisa
Counsellor Lisa Johnson is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss, parenting concerns, relationship difficulties, ADHD and issues with self-esteem.
Lisa aims for clear, straightforward conversations. She listens and helps people talk through what is most pressing. Sessions focus on practical ways to cope day to day as well as looking at longer term concerns.
Her background is in client-centred therapy, which means she prioritises the client's perspective and follows the person rather than imposing a fixed plan. This approach can suit issues where understanding feelings and building trust are important, such as grief, relationship troubles and low self-worth.
In sessions she explores what is happening now and what the person wants to change. Conversations will include checking how coping strategies are working and trying small, realistic adjustments. She pays attention to factors like caregiving stress, chronic illness, and life-stage pressures when they come up.
Practical arrangements are discussed at the first meeting. The biography notes daytime, some weekday evening and some weekend morning appointment times. People are invited to start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
How client-centred work can fit online
Client-centred therapy places the person's experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens without directing the story and reflects what she hears. This helps when people are dealing with grief, self-esteem issues or relationship concerns and need time to make sense of their feelings.That same client-centred stance can work well online because the focus is on the person's voice and priorities rather than on tasks that must be done in a room. The counsellor and client decide together which methods to try and adjust them as the work progresses. This is a collaborative process aimed at finding approaches that fit the person's needs and goals.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel. It also allows shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require video when that better suits the person's day. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these practical ways of meeting, and arrangements are discussed when booking so sessions fit into everyday life.
