Lisa Johnson, BACP

Lisa Johnson is a UK-based therapist who brings three years of professional experience to her work supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and major life changes. She holds membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which reflects training and professional standards in counselling practice. Lisa has built practical experience not only in one-to-one therapy but also through volunteering with Cruse and Family Lives, running a free community counselling service for a charity, and facilitating a men's mental health peer support group. These roles have informed her sensitive and respectful approach to clients facing shame, guilt, loneliness, or questions about purpose and identity.

Lisa tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person’s needs, focusing on building confidence, coping strategies, and motivation. She aims to empower people to take the courageous steps toward a more fulfilling life, offering compassionate support while working collaboratively on goals. Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns, including mood disorders, issues related to narcissism, and the distinct needs of women and men, always adapting methods to align with each client’s circumstances and preferences.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Therapy with Lisa

Lisa works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that are tailored to the issues most commonly brought to her sessions. One common focus is skills-focused work for stress and anxiety, which involves practical tools to manage worry, improve day-to-day functioning, and build resilience through structured strategies that can be practised between sessions. Another area of emphasis is trauma-informed care for trauma, abuse, and grief, offering a sensitive approach that helps people process difficult experiences at a pace that feels safe and manageable.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lisa works together with each client to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time so that therapy aligns with the person’s needs and progress. Registered professionals often combine techniques to match the unique situation of the individual.

Online therapy with Lisa is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes arranging sessions more flexible around work, family, and daily life. These options allow clients to access consistent support from home or elsewhere, making it easier to maintain momentum in therapy and to use strategies in real-world contexts.
