Lisa Coleman

Lisa Coleman, NCPS, offers practical support when life feels overwhelming. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger and low mood, and works with issues such as grief, relationship strain, parenting pressures and work difficulties. People also come to her for help with trauma, eating concerns, ADHD-related challenges and career questions.

Lisa uses a person-centred stance that emphasises trust and non-judgement. She listens first to understand what matters most, then works with clients to set clear, manageable goals. Sessions focus on simple steps that can be tried between meetings to build small, steady change.

Her approach draws on a mix of methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Motivational Interviewing, together with psychodynamic ideas and hypnotherapy where appropriate. This allows discussion of thoughts and feelings alongside practical strategies for coping and behaviour change.

With three years of practice experience, Lisa supports each person at their own pace. She explains options in plain language and adapts techniques to the situation at hand. Her plan for therapy is collaborative and shaped around what the client wants to achieve.

If someone is ready to make a change, Lisa aims to provide a steady, respectful space to do that. She welcomes international clients and works in English. To begin, clients follow the service sign-up and matching process and then arrange sessions according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches for online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to valued actions. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and difficulties where avoidance has become a problem. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with panic, social anxiety and workplace stress. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational way of strengthening a person's own motivation for change and can be helpful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lisa works collaboratively to explore which methods suit a client’s goals and preferences, and adapts techniques as therapy progresses. Clients are involved in choosing tasks and deciding the pace of work.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life. It may reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins around work or family commitments. The practical session formats available are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. The emphasis is on making therapy flexible and workable alongside daily responsibilities, while focusing on clear goals and simple strategies that can be practised between meetings.
