About Lisa
Lisa Powell is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with 14 years of professional experience. She holds BACP membership which indicates professional registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Lisa focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and the fallout from trauma and loss.
Her approach is practical and person-focused. Sessions aim to build trust and a non-judgemental space where people can speak freely about painful feelings.
Background and approach
Lisa uses a mix of talking therapies to suit each person, including Jungian and attachment-based ideas alongside client-centred and cognitive behavioural methods. She supports people working through relationship and intimacy issues, LGBT concerns, parenting stresses and family-related problems. She also helps with eating issues, anger, low self-esteem, career pressures and coping with major life changes such as bereavement or illness.
Lisa has experience with more complex presentations too, including bipolar, ADHD, dissociation and attachment wounds like abandonment, adoption and foster care. She also works with people affected by chronic pain, caregiving strain and cancer-related stress. In sessions Lisa aims to be collaborative and steady.
She helps people notice patterns, test out new ways of relating, and find practical steps to feel more grounded. The focus is on helping each person make workable changes that fit their life and goals.

Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Jungian therapy looks at personal stories and symbols to help people understand themselves more deeply. It can be useful for those feeling stuck with identity, meaning or recurring life patterns. Attachment-based therapy focuses on how early bonds affect current relationships and emotional responses; it helps people change patterns of relating and feel more supported in close connections.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, life context and personal preferences in early sessions and then try methods that fit. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to add flexibility. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging allows ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel while keeping continuity of care.
