About Lisa
Lisa McCormack is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. She works in a calm, straightforward way that aims to make therapy feel manageable. Lisa focuses on building confidence, improving self-esteem and helping people who feel stuck after difficult relationships or big life changes.
She uses a mix of client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness exercises. Sessions are practical and supportive with time spent understanding what matters most to the person.
Background and approach
Lisa helps people spot unhelpful thinking, try small behaviour changes and practise easy mindfulness steps between meetings. Several of Lisa’s clients seek help for problems like panic, low mood, isolation and feelings of guilt or shame. She also supports people coping with chronic illness or caregiver stress, difficulties with attachment and body image, and the fallout from separation or abandonment.
Work often centres on setting boundaries and rebuilding self-worth after toxic or emotionally abusive relationships. With three years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Lisa brings steady, practical support to sessions. She aims to walk alongside people as they relearn confidence and find clearer ways to handle everyday pressures.
Therapy can include talking, practical exercises and simple mindfulness practices. Lisa encourages clients to move at their own pace and to try changes that feel realistic for their day-to-day life.

How Lisa’s approaches work online
Lisa draws on client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy to guide online work. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening closely and helping people feel understood, which helps when discussing painful experiences or uncertainty. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at unhelpful thoughts and patterns, offering practical steps to try different behaviours and reduce anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lisa works collaboratively to agree what to try first, checks in about what helps and adapts methods to suit each person’s needs and goals. That way the work stays personal and grounded in what will make daily life easier.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be simpler if bandwidth is limited, live chat or messaging suits quick check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and travel, while keeping the focus on steady, practical progress.
