About Lisa
Lisa Roberts offers support for stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, parenting strains, relationship worries, grief, trauma and a wide range of life challenges. She also helps people dealing with addictions, ADHD, career changes and intimacy concerns. Lisa uses straightforward conversation and practical tools so people can start making small changes quickly.
Lisa works in a warm, respectful way that centres each person’s experience. She trained with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - and brings nine years of professional practice.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what the client needs right now rather than a fixed agenda. Her approach blends client-centred listening with goal-focused techniques. Cognitive behavioural methods are used to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Mindfulness practices are introduced to help with managing stress and strong emotions. Lisa also draws on existential ideas to help people reflect on values, meaning and choices when life feels uncertain. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants help with change but feels unsure how to begin.
These methods are mixed to suit each person. She works with concerns such as body image, chronic illness, attachment difficulties, adoption and foster care matters, blended family issues, and separation. Lisa has delivered mental health first aid and self-care courses, and she offers creative ways of working when that fits a client’s style.
Sessions are available in English and can be arranged across borders for international clients. The emphasis is practical, respectful conversation that helps people find clearer ways forward.

Sessions & fees
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and understanding so people feel heard and respected. Online sessions give time and space for that calm, patient conversation to unfold and for clients to explore what matters to them.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps people notice patterns of thought and behaviour and try practical experiments to change them. This approach works well online because worksheets, thought records and behavioural tasks can be shared and reviewed across video, chat or messaging.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to manage stress and strong emotions. These short exercises can be introduced in a call and practised between sessions using text reminders or brief audio guidance.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to the client's goals, preferences and day-to-day life. They will review what helps and adapt the plan as sessions progress.
Online sessions offer flexibility for people with busy lives or limited time. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, stepwise coaching, or when writing feels easier than speaking.
