About Lisa
Lisa Crosby is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 14 years of experience. She focuses on practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and life changes. She acknowledges the courage it takes to seek help and treats each person as the expert on their own story.
She helps people build motivation and confidence by drawing on strengths they already have. Conversations are down-to-earth and goal-focused, with time spent on small steps that make daily life more manageable.
Background and approach
She offers a steady presence when someone is coping with grief, relationship strain, parenting pressures or shifts in identity. Trauma, sexual assault and self-harm are also within her list of focus areas, alongside issues like body image, guilt, shame and isolation. She also has experience supporting people affected by first responder roles and young adult concerns.
Her approach is practical rather than academic; she aims to help clients notice what works and try manageable changes. Sessions centre on listening first, then working together to set realistic goals. She encourages people to use their strengths and to practise small skills between meetings.
Progress is usually discussed in everyday terms rather than clinical jargon. She holds BACP accreditation, which means she is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted at this time.

How Lisa works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will check what feels most useful and adapt methods to match a person’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where the counsellor and client review progress and try different ways of working if needed.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule or audio-only options if someone prefers not to be on camera. The biography does not specify which formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can use online sessions to help people complete goal-focused work and practise new skills between meetings.
