Lisa Powell

Lisa Powell is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with BACP registration and 14 years of professional experience. She focuses on practical help for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship worries. Her work also covers trauma, family concerns, ADHD and a wide range of related issues. She prefers a straightforward, compassionate approach. Sessions aim to be a calm space where thoughts and feelings can be talked through without judgment. Lisa emphasises building trust and a warm working relationship to help people feel understood and clearer about next steps. Her practice draws on methods that suit each person. That can mean using cognitive strategies to tackle unhelpful thought patterns or exploring attachment and relationship patterns to improve connections with others. She also uses client-centred ideas to make sure people lead the pace and focus of sessions. People often come with practical problems such as parenting strain, caring for someone with illness, or coping after loss. Lisa offers solution-focused steps when that is useful, while also making room for deeper reflection when it helps. She aims to help people notice small changes that improve day-to-day life. Work might include learning new ways to manage anxiety, talking about past hurts, or planning realistic steps for change. The first appointment is framed as a collaborative start to find the best way forward. If you are thinking about counselling, the site process asks you to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. That helps connect you with a practitioner whose approach fits your needs.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people connect now. It helps when difficulties with closeness, trust or boundaries are causing stress in current relationships. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person in the lead and focuses on listening, empathy and acceptance to help people find their own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour, useful for anxiety, low mood and problem-solving.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That means trying practical strategies, exploring relationship patterns, or combining ideas as needs change.

The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people join from a quieter location, choose whether to use video or audio, and maintain continuity when life circumstances change. Registered or accredited professionals adapt their approach so sessions remain helpful even when not in the same room.
