About Lisa

Lisa Harvey is a counsellor with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress and anxiety, depression, parenting pressures, trauma and abuse, and family conflict. She aims to offer a respectful and compassionate space for parents and individuals to talk through what matters most to them.

She adapts conversations and plans to each person's circumstances rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Sessions focus on practical steps you can try between meetings. Lisa encourages straightforward reflection and small changes that fit into family life.

Her background includes supporting people who struggle with communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation, and social anxiety. She also helps those wrestling with questions of life purpose, self-love, forgiveness, and related emotional concerns. This work blends listening with goal-focused discussion to help people move forward.

Lisa places an emphasis on understanding how stress and past hurt affect daily parenting and family dynamics. She aims to help parents recognise patterns and develop clearer ways of relating to others. Her approach is gentle but goal-minded, helping people find practical strategies that suit their routines.

If you are hesitating about starting therapy, she views the first step as an act of courage. Lisa offers support while you decide what matters most, and she will work alongside you to shape the next steps.

How evidence-based approaches can guide online work

Lisa describes using evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical ways to address difficulties. For example, a behavioural approach helps people notice patterns that keep stress and anxiety going, and then try small changes to break those patterns. A trauma-informed style emphasises safety and gradual pacing, helping people process past hurt at a pace that feels manageable.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with clients and decide together which methods fit the person’s priorities, needs and day-to-day life. This collaborative planning helps shape goals and how sessions proceed.

The practical advantages of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy schedules and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to have regular check-ins between parenting and other commitments, and it allows people to join from different locations within the United Kingdom.
