About Lisa

Lisa Roberts is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on parenting concerns alongside stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. She uses straightforward conversation to help people work through pressing problems. Sessions aim to be practical and collaborative, with strategies to manage mood, sleep and daily pressures.

She trained and holds a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) registration. That background underpins her person-centred way of working, which puts the client’s experience at the centre of each session.

Background and approach

Lisa also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and solution-focused techniques when they suit a person’s goals. Her approach is conversational and down-to-earth. She offers creative counselling methods when helpful, such as using materials or activities to support expression.

Many clients come with parenting worries, grief, trauma, or ongoing stress and she aims to make these concerns easier to manage through clear steps and reflective listening. With nine years of documented experience, Lisa has worked across charities and organisations offering counselling for parents, young people and individuals.

She has also led courses in mental health first aid and self-care, which inform her practical focus in sessions. People who choose Lisa can expect a calm, accepting space to talk and problem-solve. Sessions mix listening, gentle challenge and practical exercises tailored to the issues you bring.

Progress is planned together, so each person sets the pace and priority for the work.

Online support

How Lisa’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, with the counsellor listening carefully and following the client’s pace to help them clarify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and then practising new ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings and build motivation for change by exploring values and practical next steps.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Lisa will discuss goals and preferences, and together you will decide which methods to try. That collaborative planning means sessions can shift as your needs change and as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy parents and people with complex schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins or shorter, more frequent contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical steps and emotional support.
