Lisa Ali, NCPS

Lisa Ali is a counsellor who uses a person-centred way of working. She holds a BA Honours degree in Humanistic Counselling and has six years of practice supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and relationship difficulties. Lisa aims to make the first steps easier by offering a calm, non-judgemental space where people can be heard and accepted.

She focuses on issues such as depression, panic, addiction and intimacy-related difficulties. She also helps with low self-esteem, grief, life transitions and coping with burnout. Lisa works with people who identify as LGBT and with those navigating neurodivergent experiences including ADHD and Autism Spectrum Condition.

Her sessions are shaped around the person in front of her. She listens, reflects and follows the client’s pace while offering practical ideas when needed. Solution-focused tools are used alongside person-centred listening to help people find clearer next steps and small changes that make a difference.

Lisa has training and continued professional development in bereavement work, shame and online counselling. She has completed three years of personal therapy as part of her ongoing development. These experiences inform how she supports people through emotional regulation, triggers and past trauma.

How her approaches shape online counselling

Lisa uses a person-centred approach that places the client’s experience at the heart of each session. This means the counsellor listens closely, mirrors what is said and follows the person’s pace to build trust and clarity. It is helpful for people wanting a steady space to talk through difficult feelings.

She also draws on solution-focused techniques which concentrate on practical next steps and small changes. These tools help when someone needs clear goals, coping strategies or a short-term plan to reduce overwhelm. Trauma-focused methods are used where past distress needs careful attention, offering ways to understand triggers and develop emotional regulation skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will discuss goals and preferences with each person and decide together which methods fit best. That collaborative conversation helps shape session content and pacing so the work feels relevant to everyday life.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily routines, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when life is busy. It can also allow people to access support across borders since international clients are accepted.
