Need to talk? I specialise in anxiety and anger management.  With a gentle, supportive approach, I help you make sense of overwhelming emotions, heal relationships, build confidence, and feel calmer.

Here are some testimonials from some of my previous clients:

"This was one of the best decisions I have made. Lisa is amazing at what she does"

"Lisa was brilliant. From my very first conversation with her she knew exactly what I wanted to achieve. I am a sceptical person, but I can honestly say that every session with Lisa was life changing for me"

“Very caring, highly skilled and professional. Overall a highly recommended service” 

"I would recommend anyone thinking about getting in contact with Lisa to do so as she hasn't just helped me get the smile back on my face, I can also see my family benefiting from me getting back to my old self"

"I went to Lisa for help after some changes in my life had become overwhelming, making me very anxious. I can now say I'm a lot happier, much less anxious and I'm excited for the future with a whole new set of learned skills to deal with everything life sends my way. Very highly recommended" 

“Since working with Lisa she has completely turned my frame of mind from negative to positive. She completely believes in what she is doing which gave me the confidence to believe in her from day one” 

"Lisa is incredible. She has a very calm, patient and understanding manner which put me at ease immediately, which gave me the confidence to talk through the issues I was experiencing"

What happens in the sessions?

I offer a free consultation so we can discuss what you wish to achieve from the therapy process, and the kind of approach you would feel most comfortable with. 

This is a 20 minute informal chat over Zoom or telephone.  I will do my best to make you feel completely at ease and answer any questions you may have.

People often report that they feel a real sense of relief even after this short session, as it's great to finally make that first step towards getting better. 

If you decide to continue with the process, I generally recommend that we meet at least once per week for a minimum of 6 sessions. 

Sessions last for 50 minutes each. There's also an option of a 'double session' if you'd like to discuss things more in-depth, or if you'd like to include some hypnotherapy. Whatever route you wish to take, I'm happy to help you.

You may want to take a practical approach and learn techniques and strategies to help you feel better as quickly as possible, or you might prefer to simply take your time exploring your feelings and getting to the root of why you feel the way you do.

I realise that first step can be very daunting, but I encourage you to get in touch. Don't suffer in silence - reach out and get the support you need - it might just change your life. For my part, I promise to do my utmost to help make the whole process as smooth as possible.
