 Hi, I'm Lisa and I am a qualified Psychotherapeutic counsellor and life coach. I have been working within mental and emotional health for over 10 years.  I am a person-centred counsellor which means you are at the centre of any work that we do together.  I have done various extra training, which enables me to add various tools and techniques from other modalities to my work.   

My previous roles include lead counsellor where I managed the counselling service for a local charity. I have also worked as crisis café lead for another charity, where I ran a 'walk in' crisis service. I have experienced working in a secondary school as a wellbeing and mental health support officer, supporting students with their emotional and mental health.  

I can offer short or long term counselling and packages tailored to suit you for life coaching.  My therapy room is based in a beautiful grade 2 listed building based in a beautiful country park. Being based in a country park gives me the opportunity to offer Ecotherapy. This is a form of counselling that takes place outside, either sitting in a quiet spot within the park or 'walking and talking'. This is a great opportunity to embrace the outdoors or connect with nature whilst having your counselling. For some it may also take the pressure off sitting face to face with their counsellor.    The country park has amenities offering free parking, toilets, a café and shop.
