About Lisa

BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 14 years of professional experience, Lisa Crosby helps people address stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and coping with life changes. She works with issues including relationships, trauma and abuse, parenting, depression and LGBT concerns. Lisa also focuses on body image, first responder issues, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, self-harm, self-love, sexual assault and young adult issues.

Lisa frames the person in the room as the expert on their own story. She looks for strengths that can be used to manage difficult moments. Sessions begin with practical conversation about current problems and everyday goals. The tone is straightforward and focused on what the person wants to change.

Her background includes many years of direct client work across a range of concerns. That experience informs a practical style that emphasises clear steps and regular review. People can expect conversations that identify patterns and then try small, manageable changes between meetings.

Lisa pays close attention to motivation, confidence and the impact of life transitions. She also works with issues that affect identity, such as LGBT concerns and body image. When trauma or abuse is involved, the focus is on supporting coping and stabilisation before moving on to longer-term processing.

Clients are invited to take a short matching questionnaire and book an initial session. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time and cost varies by location. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted.

How Lisa uses evidence-based approaches in online sessions

Lisa describes her work as using evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, and then practise alternative ways of responding. This can be useful for anxiety, low mood and self-esteem issues.

Another approach used focuses on building coping skills for distress and managing strong emotions. It teaches short, repeatable strategies that people can use between sessions to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and agree what fits their needs, goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may shift as progress is reviewed.

The practical benefits of online work include easier fitting of sessions into busy weeks and fewer travel demands. Please confirm which session formats are available before booking, as the biography does not specify formats. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use remote sessions to keep regular contact and make care more consistent with everyday life.
