About Lisa

Lisa Hughes helps people work through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and low mood. She works as an integrative counsellor, using a mix of approaches to suit each person, and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

She offers a straightforward way of working. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps that feel manageable. Lisa aims to create an open space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings without judgment. She checks messages regularly and replies promptly, though she does not work at weekends and will respond to weekend messages on Monday.

Her background includes work as a wellbeing officer, which informs a practical approach to coping and day-to-day organisation. She uses a blend of therapeutic methods where helpful, selecting techniques to match a person’s concerns and preferences. This can mean addressing thinking patterns, building self-esteem, and developing strategies for stress and anxiety.

Lisa also focuses on particular areas such as abandonment issues, body image, chronic pain, illness and disability, isolation and loneliness, narcissism, social anxiety and phobia, and women’s issues. She supports people who want clearer relationships and better emotional regulation.

Sessions are designed to be collaborative, with goals set together and reviewed as work progresses. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking by following the service’s matching process and scheduling a first appointment.

Therapeutic approaches used and what to expect

Lisa practices an integrative style and draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address the issues people bring. One common approach focuses on recognising and changing unhelpful thinking patterns to reduce anxiety and low mood; this helps people notice automatic thoughts and try alternative ways of thinking. Another approach emphasises developing practical coping skills and routines to manage stress and chronic health challenges; this can include pacing activities, problem-solving and small behavioural changes to improve day-to-day functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different methods with the client and agree a plan together based on needs, goals and preferences. That plan can be reviewed as progress is made and techniques adjusted if something is not helpful.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote sessions help maintain consistency of contact and practical continuity of care while working together.
