Lisa Tabanivesikula
Flexible, person-focused counselling for everyday challenges
About Lisa
Lisa Tabanivesikula offers practical, person-focused counselling for people feeling overwhelmed or stuck. She writes plainly and listens closely to understand what matters to each individual. Sessions aim to make small, useful changes that fit into everyday life rather than promise quick fixes.
Lisa uses a calm, compassionate style so people can talk honestly about difficult feelings. She blends techniques from several approaches to match each person’s needs. That might mean using cognitive behavioural ideas to shift unhelpful thoughts, client-centred ways to explore feelings, or hypnotherapy tools when appropriate.
Background and approach
Conversations are interactive and geared toward clear, achievable goals. Lisa helps people notice patterns, try new responses, and practise different ways of coping. With four years of experience and the NCPS credential, she brings clarity and steady support to common problems.
Typical topics include stress, anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties, self-esteem, grief, trauma, workplace strain, addiction concerns, body image, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. She also addresses parenting challenges, ADHD, and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
International clients may be accepted. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. People who prefer a collaborative, down-to-earth approach may find this helpful.
Lisa encourages practical steps and ongoing reflection so changes can stick. To begin, use the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule a first session.

Approaches that suit online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding what matters to the person. A counsellor offers empathy and reflection so people can make their own sense of difficult feelings and choose the next steps. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, and building self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. It uses simple exercises and practical tools to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours, which can help with anxiety, sleep issues and low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and everyday constraints to shape a plan. That collaborative voice helps make sessions feel relevant and doable.
Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging add flexibility. Video can support a fuller conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is low, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect in writing between meetings. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family life and travel while keeping the focus on practical progress.
