About Lisa

Lisa Martucci is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 11 years of experience. She sees individuals who are coping with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression, and she lists guilt and shame among her focus areas.

She writes plainly about anxiety that grows until it controls daily life and causes avoidance. Lisa uses psychoeducation and motivational interviewing alongside body-oriented work to help people understand what is happening and why. Her approach aims to bring difficult feelings into focus so practical steps can follow.

Her training includes a Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Therapy and Counselling, completed in 2022. That training included two clinical placements working with a substance misuse agency and a charity offering long-term therapy to GP-referred clients. She also worked with young adults as a mentor and therapist through the YMCA.

Lisa has worked with a rape crisis service and describes herself as trauma informed through that work and further training. She offers individual therapy in private practice and provides supervision for other therapists.

She is a registered member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists, listed as BACP, and carries professional insurance. If someone is carrying guilt or shame from past actions, family issues, relationships or faith, Lisa aims to help them look at the feelings and the patterns that keep them stuck.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships. It looks at how past connections shape current trust and closeness, which can help when guilt or shame affects relationships.

Client-centred therapy centres on the person in front of the counsellor. It uses careful listening and reflection to help someone clarify feelings and make sense of difficult choices.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions and urges. It is often used when anxiety, self-destructive behaviour or strong shame reactions make day-to-day life hard.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods and help decide what fits the client's goals and preferences. This is done together, so the plan can change as the work progresses.

The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow quieter or shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to support steady work on anxiety, guilt and shame while fitting therapy into everyday life.
