About Lisa
Lisa Hughes works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, low mood, anxiety or relationship strain. She aims to make it easier to talk about painful experiences and to build small, manageable steps toward feeling better. Lisa uses a calm, down-to-earth style and focuses on what a person needs right now.
She has three years of professional experience and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Background and approach
She describes herself as an integrative counsellor and combines different approaches to match each client's needs. That means sessions are shaped around a person's goals rather than a one-size-fits-all method. Lisa also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, problems with self-esteem, and issues linked to body image or chronic illness.
She can help when loneliness, social anxiety or difficulties around relationships feel overwhelming. Her work includes attention to concerns such as abandonment and narcissism when these are relevant to the person coming for help. In sessions she aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared.
She encourages pacing the work so clients feel able to try new ways of coping without feeling rushed. Practical discussion and honest listening are part of how she helps people make changes. Lisa checks messages regularly and replies in a timely way.
She does not work at weekends because she reserves that time for family, so messages sent over the weekend will be answered on Monday.

How Lisa works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss what feels helpful and adapt methods to the client's goals and preferences. Clients and the therapist decide collaboratively which techniques to try and when to shift direction if something is not helping.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around busy lives, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins on difficult days. They can also make some practical tasks simpler, such as sharing resources, using breathing exercises together or arranging short catch-ups between longer sessions. Registered or accredited professionals typically adapt pacing and tools so the work fits each person's day-to-day routine.
