About Lisa
Lisa Harvey is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who brings three years of professional experience to her practice. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and depression, and supports those coping with trauma and abuse. Lisa also helps with parenting challenges and family-related difficulties.
Her style is straightforward and compassionate. Conversations are shaped around what matters most to the individual. She aims to create a respectful space where people can talk about hard things and start to find clearer steps forward.
Background and approach
Lisa works with everyday problems such as communication breakdowns, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. She also supports people addressing social anxiety, questions about life purpose, and the work of self-love and forgiveness. Sessions are tailored to the person’s needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.
In practical terms she offers a mix of session formats to suit different schedules and preferences. She explains options clearly and helps people choose what will work best for them. The emphasis is on small, manageable steps toward change.
Taking the first step can feel daunting. Lisa’s aim is to make that step easier by listening carefully and helping people map out achievable goals. The work emphasises understanding, practical conversation, and steady progress.

Approaches that guide online therapy and what they do
Many effective therapeutic methods focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One commonly used approach helps people learn how thoughts and feelings connect to behaviour. It teaches simple skills to notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood.Another approach centres on processing difficult experiences and building safety in everyday life. It supports people who have faced trauma or abuse by helping them make sense of memories and slowly regain a sense of control and stability.
Finding the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will work collaboratively with the person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and preferences. That means discussing what feels manageable and adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work well with lower bandwidth, and written formats suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel while keeping the focus on steady, practical progress.
