About Lisa

Counsellor and BACP member with 11 years' experience, Lisa Martucci works with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. She sees individual clients in private practice and offers supervision to other therapists. Lisa uses a mix of approaches including Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy.

Lisa describes anxiety that grows until it limits everyday life and leads to avoidance and isolation. She aims to help people bring that anxiety into focus so they can understand what is happening and why. Her work combines psychoeducation, motivational interviewing and body-focused work to address both thoughts and physical responses.

Her training includes a Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Therapy and Counselling, completed in 2022, with two clinical placements. Those placements included work at a substance misuse agency and at a charity offering long-term therapy for GP-referred clients. She has also worked with young adults as a mentor and therapist through the YMCA.

Lisa has extensive experience with trauma-related work through training and practice at a rape crisis service. She is insured and a registered member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists, following that organisation's ethical framework.

In sessions she balances practical information with skills work and body-based techniques. She aims to help people reduce avoidance, manage anxiety, and re-engage with their lives. People considering therapy are invited to an initial consultation to see if the approach fits their needs.

How her approaches translate into online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and patterns formed early in life. Online work can use conversation and reflection to identify how attachment patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises listening and supporting a person's own pace of change. In remote sessions this means the counsellor follows the client's lead, using questions and reflection to help people make sense of their feelings. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing emotions and reducing unhelpful behaviours. In online sessions this can include teaching breathing and grounding techniques, emotion regulation skills and behavioural experiments people can practise between meetings. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options with the person and decide together which methods best match needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process may combine approaches over time as needs change. Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and making it easier to schedule appointments around work or caregiving commitments. Registered and accredited professionals often adapt content and pacing to suit remote working, including practical skills practice and body-based exercises that translate to a screen or audio call.
