Lisa Hughes, BACP

Lisa Hughes is a UK-credentialed counsellor with three years of professional experience who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She works in an integrative way, drawing on a range of evidence-based techniques and tailoring the approach to each person’s needs so that therapy aligns with individual goals and circumstances.

As a BACP credential holder, Lisa follows standards recognised across the United Kingdom for counselling and psychotherapy practice. In sessions she aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be shared and explored. Her work also reflects experience as a wellbeing officer, bringing a practical focus on daily coping and overall wellbeing alongside emotional processing.

Lisa emphasises collaboration, supporting and empowering clients as they take the often-difficult first steps toward change and a more fulfilling life. She adapts modalities to suit the person in front of her rather than applying a single method to everyone. Messages are checked regularly and she responds promptly during working days; she does not work on weekends and will aim to reply to weekend messages on Monday.

Therapy with Lisa is offered in English and is delivered with attention to each client’s unique situation, moving at a pace that feels safe and constructive for the individual.

Integrative approaches and online therapy

Lisa practices integrative counselling, which means she blends different evidence-based techniques to suit each person’s situation. This approach focuses on understanding the whole person and selecting tools that help with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and depressive symptoms.

Alongside integrative work, Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to build practical coping skills and to explore emotional patterns. These methods aim to reduce overwhelming symptoms and strengthen confidence, supporting clients through trauma, loss, or relational challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Lisa works collaboratively to identify what fits best for each client. Together they will review goals, preferences, and progress and adjust methods as needed so therapy remains responsive and effective.

Online therapy with Lisa is offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit around work, family, and daily life. Registered professionals can deliver meaningful, structured support through these formats, making it easier to access consistent care without travelling to appointments.
