About Lisa Anderson
She has focused experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues, and often orients her work around a polyvagal approach to counselling that prioritises cultivating safety and wellbeing. Her practice is grounded in person-centred values - she aims to offer a kind, non-judgmental, honest, and respectful therapeutic relationship that creates fertile ground for healing to occur.
In sessions she listens empathically and follows what each person brings, gently guiding attention to physical sensations, thoughts, and feelings as they arise. This mindful, somatic-attuned way of working is intended to support the body's natural capacity for integration and recovery. Lisa believes that at least one kind and safe relationship is crucial for health, and she offers collaborative support to help people take courageous first steps toward a more fulfilling and contented life.

Therapeutic approaches and accessible online care
Lisa Anderson integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside person-centred principles. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, and take steps toward a meaningful life - it is often used for anxiety, stress, and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on early relationship patterns and how they influence current connections; it can be useful for intimacy-related concerns, abandonment or attachment issues, and relationship difficulties. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a warm, non-judgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist listens deeply and follows the client's pace, supporting self-exploration and personal growth.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lisa works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts interventions over time and involves the client in decisions about focus and pace.
Offering therapy by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to access care around work, family, and daily life. These options provide flexibility in scheduling, allow continuity when travel or mobility are a concern, and make it possible for people in different parts of the United Kingdom to connect with registered professionals who can support them in their preferred format.
