About Lisa

Lisa Johnson is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with adults on everyday problems such as stress, anxiety, grief and loss, and issues tied to parenting and relationships. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, low self-esteem and feelings of guilt and shame.

Lisa keeps sessions straightforward and focused on what is happening now. She listens without judgement and helps people name the thoughts and feelings that get in the way. Practical conversation is mixed with space to reflect, so clients can try different ways of responding outside sessions.

She often starts by finding a few clear goals together. That could be managing anxiety, sorting priorities as a parent, or working through regret and self-blame. Sessions aim to make changes people can use in daily life rather than only talking about problems.

Her approach draws on client-centred principles, which place the client's experience at the centre of the work. This looks like open questioning, reflecting what is said, and building on the client’s own understanding and strengths. Lisa adapts the pace to each person and adjusts what they focus on as progress is made.

Practical matters such as scheduling are discussed up front. The practice uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to begin.

Client-centred approach and online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of each session. The counsellor reflects what a person says, asks open questions, and follows the client’s lead to help them make sense of difficult feelings such as guilt or shame. This approach works well for issues around self-esteem, relationship worries, and adjusting to life changes.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The counsellor will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences, and make active choices together about tone, pace and focus. That means checking in about what helps and changing direction if something feels unhelpful.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people appreciate online appointments for practical reasons such as fitting sessions into a busy week, making use of shorter check-ins during a work break, or avoiding travel on days when symptoms are worse. Registered or accredited professionals can offer ways to make sessions fit daily life while working through the issues that brought someone to therapy.
