About Lisa
Lisa Anderson is a BACP-registered counsellor working in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, grief and anger. Sessions are conducted in English.
Her practice draws on long personal experience with mindfulness, meditation and somatic work. She uses those interests alongside evidence-informed methods to help clients notice how thoughts, sensations and emotions show up in the body. That practical noticing is a common starting point for someone who snaps at people they love or who keeps resentment bottled up.
Lisa describes her style as person-centred. She aims to offer honest, respectful listening and to follow what the client brings. Conversations often include prompts to attend to physical sensations as well as thoughts, so people can learn what triggers their strong reactions and how those reactions unfold.
She blends several therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas and Emotionally-Focused techniques. These help with building awareness, working through attachment patterns and understanding relationship-driven anger or intimacy issues.
Clients can expect practical conversations about day-to-day patterns and coping options. The work emphasises noticing and experimenting rather than quick fixes. For anyone worried about temper at home or frustration at work, Lisa offers steady, plain guidance and tools to try between sessions.
How sessions work
How her approaches work for online sessions
Lisa uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in clear, practical ways. ACT invites people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings, choose what matters to them, and take small committed actions despite discomfort. It can help with anger that comes from avoidance or unhelpful thinking.She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas. This approach looks at how past relationship patterns affect current reactions and closeness. It helps people recognise why certain interactions spark strong feelings and how to shift those patterns in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She pays attention to what the client prefers and adjusts the focus over time.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and having a regular time for reflection without long travel. If you want to book, please confirm the current session options before scheduling, since formats were not specified in the biography. Many registered or accredited professionals use a range of formats to make therapy manageable alongside work and family commitments.
