About Lisa
Over a number of years she has provided counselling for Leicester Woman’s Counselling Centre and for First Step, an organisation that supports male survivors of sexual abuse and rape. She has developed wide-ranging experience working with anxiety, depression and complex trauma, and regularly attends continuing professional development workshops and specialised training to enhance her skills and keep her practice current.
Originally qualifying as a Holistic Therapist in 1998, Lisa spent many years supporting clients to improve overall wellbeing. She noticed that the conversational time alongside physical therapy often had the deepest therapeutic impact, as it created an empathic, caring and non-judgemental space for exploration. Initially trained in person-centred counselling, she now works in an integrative way, tailoring her approach holistically to meet each person’s needs.
Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Support
Lisa Wan commonly draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. Trauma-Focused Therapy is a targeted approach that helps people process and reduce the ongoing impact of traumatic events, supporting recovery from abuse, complex trauma and related symptoms. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathic therapeutic relationship where the person is guided to explore their own thoughts and feelings at their own pace, which can be especially helpful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship struggles and grief. Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and grounding skills to reduce stress and anxiety and to support emotional regulation in daily life.
Finding the right combination of methods is part of the therapeutic process. Lisa works collaboratively with each person to identify the approaches that best match their needs, goals and preferences, adapting the plan as therapy progresses to ensure the best possible fit.
Online therapy with Lisa is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, to continue work during life changes, and to connect with therapists when in-person visits are difficult, while still allowing licensed professionals and therapists to deliver effective, focused support.
