About Lisa
Lisa Tabanivesikula NCPS is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem, career concerns, depression and addictions. She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting challenges, and ADHD related difficulties.
Her work combines straightforward talking, practical exercises, and focused reflection. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centred methods and hypnotherapy where appropriate. Sessions aim to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits, test different responses, and build small, workable changes.
Lisa describes her style as calm and interactive. She listens without judgement and works with each person to set clear goals. The process is collaborative - decisions about methods and pace are made together.
In practice she mixes short term, solution-focused tasks with deeper exploration when needed. That can include challenging negative thinking patterns, practising behavioural experiments, and using relaxation or hypnotherapy techniques to support sleep or anxiety management.
People who come to her usually want practical steps they can use daily. She asks about current routines, what has or hasn’t helped before, and then co-designs a plan. Where issues touch on past experience, she may combine present-focused work with psychodynamic ideas to understand repeated patterns.
How her approaches translate to online work
Lisa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change patterns of thinking and behaviour; this helps with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems by breaking problems into manageable steps. She also uses client-centred methods that focus on listening and helping the person set their own goals. Hypnotherapy may be offered as an additional tool to support relaxation, sleep, or confidence work when appropriate.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss different methods and agree together which to try, adjusting based on your goals and what feels most helpful. That collaborative process helps make sessions practical and focused on clear next steps.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting work around busy days and reducing travel. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by audio when they need a quick review. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which online options are available before booking. Overall, online sessions aim to bring the same goal-focused techniques into everyday life so changes can be practised between meetings.
