Lisa McCormack
Practical, listening-led therapy for life’s hard moments
About Lisa
Lisa McCormack offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed. She understands how anxiety, stress, grief and low self-esteem can make everyday life harder. Her approach focuses on helping people notice what they need and take small, manageable steps forward.
Lisa uses a mix of person-centred ideas, cognitive behavioural strategies and mindfulness techniques. That means sessions can be warm and listening-led, while also looking at unhelpful thinking patterns and practising new ways of coping.
Background and approach
She explains things simply and helps set clear, realistic goals. With three years of professional experience, Lisa has worked with people facing trauma and abuse, depression, panic attacks and difficult life changes. She pays particular attention to issues around boundaries, abandonment and attachment difficulties.
Practical concerns such as chronic pain, caregiver stress and communication problems are also part of her work. Sessions aim to increase clarity and self-trust. Lisa often supports people who are rebuilding confidence after unhealthy relationships or who feel burnt out and unsure of their next steps.
She helps clients develop skills to manage mood swings, panic and persistent worry. Lisa is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She offers online sessions across the United Kingdom and to international clients in English.
To begin, people complete a short questionnaire to match with a therapist and then arrange sessions that suit their schedule.

Approaches that suit online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy is about being listened to without judgement and feeling understood. This approach helps people who need space to talk through emotions and rebuild confidence. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural changes to ease symptoms like panic, low mood or anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day coping.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will explore your goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together you will try different ways of working and agree what to focus on so the therapy feels collaborative and tailored to you.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for a near face-to-face feel and fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief reflections, ongoing check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or other commitments while working with registered or accredited professionals.
