Lisa Powell , BACP

Lisa Powell is a United Kingdom based therapist who holds the BACP credential and brings 14 years of clinical experience to her practice. The BACP credential stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and indicates recognised training and professional membership within the counselling field.

She has supported people facing stress, anxiety, depression, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and grief and loss, and she can draw on solution-focused and strategic techniques when a targeted approach is helpful. Her work also encompasses a broad range of life challenges, including relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting and blended family issues, and coping with health or caregiving stresses.

Lisa’s approach centres on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings. She aims to build a therapeutic relationship marked by trust, mutual respect and consistent empathy, helping clients to gain clearer perspective, strengthen self-regard, and engage more effectively with their lives. Sessions are shaped to each person’s needs, combining practical tools with deeper exploration as appropriate.

Recognising that beginning therapy is a significant step, Lisa acknowledges the courage it takes to reach out and offers steady support for anyone ready to start that process.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Lisa Powell works with several well-established approaches that translate effectively to online care. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape patterns of connection and can help with difficulties such as abandonment, attachment issues, and complex family dynamics by focusing on emotional bonds and repair. Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the centre of the process, offering empathic listening and acceptance so clients can find their own solutions to challenges like low self-esteem, relationship struggles, or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses unhelpful thoughts and behaviours with practical strategies and skills, making it useful for conditions such as anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with change.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Lisa will work with each person to understand their needs, goals and preferences and to adapt methods over time so the work feels relevant and effective. This partnership helps ensure therapy stays focused and responsive.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility by letting clients meet through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, access support from different locations, and continue consistent work even when in-person meetings are not practical, while still engaging with licensed professionals and therapists in meaningful therapeutic work.
