About Lisa
Lisa Rowley has been counselling for six years in the United Kingdom. She works with adults and young people in independent practice and has supported pupils affected by domestic abuse in schools. Lisa holds BACP accreditation and uses straightforward, compassionate care to help people who feel stuck or overwhelmed.
Clients often come with stress, anxiety or trouble sleeping, and she also helps with grief, depression and coping with major life changes.
Background and approach
She offers practical support for difficult feelings such as guilt, shame, anger and isolation. Problems tied to relationships, attachment and communication are part of her everyday work. Lisa draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person.
She uses client-centred conversation to listen and clarify what matters most. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful patterns and try small changes that can improve day-to-day life. EMDR is one of the approaches she brings into therapy when trauma memories need different kinds of attention.
Sessions aim to be warm and non-judgemental. People can expect a collaborative style where goals are agreed and work is tailored to pace and need. Lisa pays attention to practical coping strategies alongside exploring deeper life themes.
Her additional focus areas include caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, career concerns, money worries and midlife questions. Whether someone wants short-term problem solving or longer-term exploration, she supports people as they work towards clearer thinking and better functioning.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic listening and helping a person find their own answers; it is useful for building trust, exploring emotions and clarifying values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviours to identify small practical changes that can reduce anxiety, lift mood and improve sleep. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used to work with distressing or traumatic memories by combining focused recall with specific bilateral stimulation techniques to change how memories feel.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy journey. The therapist works collaboratively to review needs, goals and preferences, and then suggests which methods to try first. This decision can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.
Online sessions can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let people read facial cues and tone, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit around a work break, while live chat or text messaging offer shorter check-ins and written reflections. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent when life is busy or travel is difficult, and they allow people to choose the format that suits their pace and comfort.
