About Lisa
Lisa Anderson helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related difficulties. She also supports those dealing with grief, relationship strain, ADHD concerns, self-esteem struggles and major life changes. Lisa works in the United Kingdom and carries the BACP credential, which is listed as BACP in her profile.
Her style is warm and person-centred. She aims to offer a kind, honest and non-judgemental space where clients can be heard.
Background and approach
Lisa pays attention to how emotions show up in the body and often invites people to notice physical sensations alongside thoughts and feelings. Emotionally-Focused Therapy informs much of her approach, with attention to attachment and the role relationships play in emotional life.
She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and elements of attachment-based work to help people clarify values and rebuild connection to themselves and others. Much of Lisa's way of working draws on a long personal history with mindfulness, meditation and somatic awareness. This experience shapes how she guides people to settle, notice bodily signals, and respond differently to overwhelming feelings.
Sessions tend to be collaborative. Lisa listens first and follows the person's pace, offering observations and gentle guidance when helpful. She frames the counselling relationship as a safe, respectful place to practice new ways of coping and relating.
With five years of professional experience, she focuses on supporting each person's unique needs and goals. People who want a reflective, feeling-focused approach often find this style helpful.

Online support
Approaches that work well online and in conversation
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name feelings in the moment and understand how emotions shape close connections. It can be useful for dealing with intimacy issues, attachment concerns and grief. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and practical steps - it helps people notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them and take committed action toward what matters. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to patterns of relating formed in earlier relationships and helps people try new ways of connecting and responding.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person's goals, needs and preferences. That might mean drawing more on emotionally-focussed work in one period and using ACT exercises at another, with options agreed together as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when discussion and emotional attunement matter. Phone sessions can suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in more frequently and fit brief sessions around work, caregiving or travel. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of support and to try different ways of working without needing to travel.
