About Lisa
Lisa Coleman NCPS has three years' experience as a psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and self-esteem issues. Lisa also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, eating concerns, parenting strain, relationship and family difficulties, anger, career questions and ADHD-related challenges.
She describes therapy in practical terms: looking at thoughts, feelings and behaviours to understand where difficult patterns come from. Lisa uses that understanding to help people try different responses. Sessions aim to reduce distress and build more manageable habits over time.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centred methods, hypnotherapy and motivational interviewing. She favours clear, person-focused work rather than a single fixed model. That means sessions can include talking, practical exercises and strategies to test between appointments.
Lisa values trust, honesty and a non-judgemental stance in her work. She says plans are flexible and paced to the individual. The emphasis is on practical steps that fit around everyday life rather than long theoretical explanations.
People who choose her often want concrete ways to manage panic attacks, social anxiety, workplace stress and the fallout from domestic violence or first responder work. She also offers support for young adult issues, narcissism-related dynamics and parenting concerns, with attention to how those problems affect daily functioning.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Lisa commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online work. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety or panic. ACT helps people notice what matters to them and practise actions that fit those values even when feelings are difficult.She also uses client-centred methods to prioritise the person's concerns and motivational interviewing to support readiness for change. Each approach is described simply in session so clients know what to try and why. The therapist and client decide together which methods to use based on goals and what feels manageable.
Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and to continue work across locations. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking as the profile does not list specific formats. The focus online remains practical: short exercises, behavioural tasks to try between meetings and straightforward planning to help manage symptoms around daily routines.
