About Lisa
Lisa Guy offers support for people facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, depression and big life changes. She aims to create a warm and non-judgemental space where people can talk through thoughts and feelings and start to feel more valued and understood. Her style is patient and person-centred.
Sessions focus on the client's pace and priorities, with the counsellor listening closely and reflecting back what matters. The aim is to help people understand how past and current events affect their day-to-day life and sense of self.
Background and approach
Lisa works integratively, drawing on person-centred, humanistic and psychodynamic ideas to shape each session. That means methods are chosen to suit the individual rather than following a fixed template. Practical conversation and gentle reflection are combined to explore patterns and options.
She brings workplace experience from a 19-year career in IT, plus time in retail and market research. That background informs an awareness of how work pressures affect wellbeing and relationships outside work. Volunteering at Norwood and Brixton Foodbank and mentoring in IT added hands-on experience supporting people through practical and emotional challenges.
Lisa holds a CPCAB Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, abbreviated as BACP. She has three years' experience and aims to continue developing her professional skills. People interested in starting are encouraged to consider what they hope to change and what feels important to talk about in first sessions.

How Lisa works online
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, then try ways of working that match the person's needs. Progress is checked together so methods can be adjusted as therapy moves on.
The practical benefits of online therapy depend on available session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family commitments, reduce travel time and allow sessions to take place from different locations. They can also offer shorter check-ins when that suits a busy day or lower-bandwidth options if internet quality is limited. Registered or accredited professionals aim to make online work flexible and usable within everyday life.
