How Lisa works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and suggest approaches that suit you. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as understanding grows.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so check the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support continuity of care when circumstances change. Registered or accredited professionals will tailor sessions to practical needs and help you decide what will work best for day-to-day life.
