About Lisa
Lisa Kirk is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and has four years of professional experience. She offers calm, respectful support for people facing difficult times.
Her practice focuses on common but painful issues such as stress, anxiety, depression and trauma and abuse. She also helps with grief and loss, major life changes, relationship and family concerns, intimacy questions and parenting strains. Issues around eating, sleeping and self-esteem are part of her work too.
Background and approach
Lisa uses a person-centred style in sessions. That means conversations are shaped around the person in front of her, not a one-size-fits-all model. She also draws on motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons and energy for change.
Sessions are practical and conversational. Lisa aims to tailor discussion and any agreed plan to each person’s needs and goals. She focuses on helping people connect with their own thoughts and feelings and on small, manageable steps forward.
She accepts international clients and runs sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and scheduling follows according to the therapist’s availability.

Ways of working Lisa names
Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.
How these approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy places you at the centre of the conversation. The counsellor listens closely and reflects what matters to you. This approach helps when you need space to understand your feelings and decide what matters most.Motivational Interviewing focuses on finding your own reasons for change. A counsellor asks questions that help you weigh options and build motivation. It can be useful for making life changes, sticking to decisions, or finding direction after a difficult event.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the process. The therapist will work with you to identify goals and try ways of working that fit your needs and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change as you progress.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be quicker and use less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging can be helpful for shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, travel and family life while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
