About Lisa

Lisa Hughes is a BACP-registered counsellor who helps people feeling lonely, stressed or overwhelmed. She works with those struggling with anxiety, low mood, self-esteem and relationship difficulties. Her approach is straightforward and kind, aimed at helping people take practical steps towards feeling better.

She has three years of professional experience in the UK and balances clinical work with a role as a wellbeing officer. That combination means she brings both listening skills and practical wellbeing knowledge to sessions. She creates a calm space where clients can talk through painful memories or current pressures without fear of judgement.

Lisa describes her practice as integrative, which means she draws on more than one way of working to suit each person. She tailors her approach to what a client needs rather than following a single method. This can include short-term problem-focused work or a longer conversation about patterns that keep returning.

Messages are checked regularly during the working week and she aims to reply promptly. She does not typically work at weekends as she reserves that time for family. Clients who contact her over the weekend can expect a reply on the next working day.

Her style is supportive and empowering. She meets people where they are, helps them set realistic goals, and supports the steps they choose to take. People who value practical guidance alongside listening often find this way of working helpful.

Therapeutic approaches and remote working

Lisa describes her practice as integrative, which means she uses evidence-based techniques suited to the person in front of her. One common approach is short-term problem-focused work that breaks issues into manageable steps and helps with immediate symptoms such as anxiety or low mood. Another is a more exploratory form of talking therapy that looks at recurring patterns, relationships and past experiences to understand how they shape current feelings and behaviour.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss options with the client, try methods that match the client's goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made. This shared decision-making helps tailor sessions to what feels most useful for the person seeking support.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing meetings from different locations. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or conversations without being on camera when that helps someone focus. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often offer these flexible benefits to help therapy fit around everyday commitments.
