Lisa Anderson

Lisa Anderson helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, anger and changes in relationships. She supports people dealing with ADHD, grief, self-esteem struggles and intimacy-related issues. Her work also covers concerns such as isolation, family problems, forgiveness and midlife transitions.

She draws on five years of professional practice in the United Kingdom, alongside many years of personal experience with mindfulness, meditation and somatic exploration. She uses a person-centred style that values respect, honesty and warmth in the counselling relationship. That approach aims to create a calm space where people can speak freely and be heard.

Sessions often include gentle guidance to notice bodily sensations, thoughts and feelings. This focus helps people connect what they feel inside with what happens in their relationships and daily life. Lisa describes her work as collaborative - she listens first, then follows what each person needs.

Her clinical interests include attachment issues, abandonment, codependency and intimacy concerns. She also supports people facing bereavement, divorce, eating difficulties and the emotional aftermath of disasters. Her practice is informed by mindfulness and somatic awareness alongside relational approaches.

Lisa holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works in English and sees people from across the United Kingdom. To begin, people are invited to use the site’s matching process and schedule sessions according to availability.

How these approaches fit into online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and to choose actions that reflect their values. It can be helpful for anxiety, depression and for managing anger by shifting focus toward meaningful behaviour. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from important relationships and how they shape current feelings and reactions; it often helps with intimacy issues, abandonment worries and attachment struggles. Client-Centred Therapy relies on a respectful, non-judgemental relationship where the counsellor listens deeply and follows the client’s pace to build trust and self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is something the counsellor will do together with each person. Lisa explains that sessions start with listening to immediate needs and goals, then trying out ways of working that feel helpful. That collaborative process means the approach can adapt over time as priorities change.

Please check the session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time, allowing shorter check-ins between commitments, or offering options that suit different levels of bandwidth or camera use. Many people find this flexibility helps them keep therapy consistent alongside work, family and other responsibilities.
