About Lisa

Lisa Johnson supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and life changes. She works with issues such as guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, questions of life purpose, mood difficulties, and concerns linked to men’s and women’s issues. Lisa holds BACP registration, and she has three years of professional experience in the UK.

Her style is warm and down-to-earth. She aims to listen carefully and respond without judgment.

Background and approach

Sessions are shaped around what each person needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Lisa has worked with charities and community services, including volunteering roles supporting bereavement and family concerns. She has also run a free community counselling service and facilitated a peer support group focused on men’s mental health.

In practical terms she will work with you to set clear goals and pick ways of talking and working that suit you. Conversations can focus on understanding how past events affect today, building coping skills, or finding more confidence and motivation. People often come for help when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, lonely or unsure about next steps.

Lisa aims to offer steady support and practical options so people can make small changes that add up over time. If you are ready to start, she asks that you complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options

Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and understanding. One common approach involves working through responses to stress and anxiety by identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new ways of responding in daily life; this helps when worry or low mood feels persistent. Another strand addresses trauma and grief by gently making sense of difficult experiences and building coping strategies to reduce their hold on everyday life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your situation, goals and preferences, then try methods that fit your needs. If something does not feel helpful, adjustments are made together until a better fit is found.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let you speak face to face when you want deep conversation. Phone sessions work well when video is difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or other commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
