About Lisa
Lisa Powell is a BACP counsellor with 14 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and grief. Lisa also helps with relationship and intimacy issues, parenting concerns, eating and anger problems, and the challenges of major life changes.
Her work pays particular attention to attachment and adoption and foster care matters when these are relevant to a person's story. Lisa draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioural ideas, attachment-based thinking and client-centred methods to shape sessions that feel useful and practical.
In sessions she aims to make a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through painful memories and current pressures. Lisa listens for patterns that get in the way of day-to-day living and helps clients try small, manageable changes to feel better. She also talks through ways to cope with chronic illness, caregiver stress and other long-term strains.
Lisa describes her style as warm and straightforward. She works with clients to build trust and to clarify what matters most to them. That shared focus then guides each session and the pace of the work.
Taking the first step can feel hard. Lisa encourages people to notice that asking for support is a practical step towards change, and she offers collaborative, down-to-earth help along the way.
How her approaches work in online counselling
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they relate to others and to develop more secure ways of connecting. Client-Centred Therapy puts the client's experience at the centre of the session, offering empathic listening and space to find one’s own answers. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and supports practical steps to change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lisa will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to use. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as the work progresses.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and to maintain continuity when life is unsettled. It can also allow shorter check-ins or reduced travel time so therapy sits better alongside work or caregiving.
