About me and my therapy practice
Hi. I’m Lisa and I’m hoping you might like me to be your counsellor.
So, let me tell you a bit about me so you can get a feel for how our sessions could look. I am a qualified counsellor, specialising in rape, sexual abuse or assault and domestic abuse. Often when clients first come to me it can feel uncomfortable or shameful to talk about such topics, this is why I work in an open-ended way. This means you can have as many sessions as you like to explore these topics, there is no rush or pressure we can do it at your own pace and I will be right alongside with you. Sometimes with the shame that comes from our sexual mistreatment we can feel totally isolated, but in therapy that is not the case. I aim to offer my clients a place to bring your messiest, darkest, most vulnerable self without fear of judgement. I want to help guide you back to you.
Prior to becoming a counsellor, I worked in children’s services for over 10 years. Throughout this time, I have worked with many different communities and families. I have worked with those experiencing difficult family relationships, anxiety, depression and adverse childhood experiences. This has helped me to be trauma informed and non-judgemental. I am also trained as a therapeutic life story worker, meaning that I have tools to help explore the past and how it is impacting your day-to-day life.
Practice description
I am qualified in integrative therapeutic counselling. What this means for you, as my client is that I will use methods from Person Centred Counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Transactional Analysis in my work with you. Experience has taught me that different people need different tools, resources and approaches and I am able to be adaptable.
I set up Mosaic Counselling with the idea of helping people to accept all pieces of themselves and bringing those pieces together to create something uniquely beautiful. I believe that every experience that we’ve had and every person in our lives has influenced who we are and I believe that by exploring these influences we can reunite with our true selves and have a chance to choose who we are becoming.
My first session
I charge £25 for this session. This is because we will spend time gathering your contact details and I will ask questions about why you have come to counselling so that we can both make a decision about whether we can be a good fit for the work. This session is about getting to know one another and seeing if we can work together.
