About Lisa

Lisa Ellerton is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who brings three years of professional experience to her practice. She works with adults and young people to talk through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain and addictive behaviours. Lisa aims to create a warm, genuine space where clients can speak honestly and at their own pace.

She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging, so people can choose the format that suits their day. Sessions are arranged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Lisa holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP in her credentials.

In the therapy room she helps people make sense of major life changes, loss and difficult events. She pays attention to how the body and sensory experiences shape feelings, and she supports people who are neurodivergent with that understanding in mind. Lisa also addresses specific concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues and codependency.

She works with those facing chronic illness, cancer, caregiving stress and the emotional impact of ageing. Lisa can also help when control issues, dissociation or commitment worries get in the way of daily life. Her approach is practical and rooted in evidence-based therapeutic techniques.

Lisa aims to explore each person’s priorities and coping strategies, then agree small, achievable steps together. People who want gentle encouragement to face painful memories or build new routines may find her way of working helpful.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on thoughts, feelings and bodily experience. One approach helps people recognise unhelpful thinking patterns and try different ways of responding to stress and anxiety; it is practical and useful for everyday worries and mood difficulties. Another approach pays attention to how past relationships shape current attachment and trust, which can help when abandonment or commitment issues are causing pain.

Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, and together they will choose an approach that fits the person and the issue at hand. That collaborative choice can be reviewed as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible options to fit busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions work well for brief check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit those who prefer not to be on camera or want shorter, written exchanges between sessions. These formats make it easier to attend from different locations and to work therapy around other commitments.
