About Lisa
Lisa Rowley is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of practice. She has worked in private practice and in schools, supporting young people and adults who have experienced domestic abuse. Her main areas of work include stress, anxiety, grief, depression and the effects of trauma and abuse.
Rowley meets people using straightforward conversation and active listening. She focuses on identifying the root causes of a problem and then agreeing small, practical steps to address them. Sessions aim to help clients become clearer about feelings, patterns and choices.
Her work draws on client-centred methods, psychodynamic ideas and structured techniques such as cognitive behavioural interventions and EMDR where appropriate. She also uses relationship-focused tools when relationship issues or communication problems are a core concern. These approaches are used to make sense of past experience and to change unhelpful patterns now.
Lisa has experience with a wide range of concerns beyond trauma, including sleep problems, anger, addictions, career uncertainty, caregiver stress and mood difficulties. She also supports people facing life transitions such as divorce, midlife change or ongoing health challenges.
People who contact her tend to be looking for practical support and a clear plan rather than a long series of abstract conversations. She works in English and does not accept international clients. To begin, people follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Lisa uses client-centred work to focus on what matters to the client now. This approach emphasises listening, reflection and letting the conversation follow what the person brings. It is useful for building clarity about feelings and priorities.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and tests small, practical changes. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful routines because it gives clear steps to try between sessions.
EMDR is offered as a method for addressing distress linked to traumatic memories. It involves structured processing of upsetting memories to reduce their intensity and the way they affect present-day thinking and emotions.
Deciding which method to use is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they agree an approach and review it as work progresses so the plan can change if needed.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed, and options that avoid the need to travel to a practice. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt materials and exercises so the work remains practical and relevant.
