About Lisa

Lisa Martucci is a counsellor who helps people struggling with anxiety, low mood, stress and issues linked to addiction and trauma. She also works with concerns around self-esteem, codependency and relationship patterns rooted in attachment. Her tone is straightforward and practical, aimed at people who feel overwhelmed and want a clear way forward.

Lisa uses plain talk, psychoeducation and motivational strategies to make sense of difficult feelings. She blends hands-on bodywork with talking and learning new skills so people can re-engage with life. Sessions aim to identify what keeps problems going and to build small, steady changes.

She has a postgraduate diploma in Integrative Therapy and Counselling, awarded in 2022. During training she completed two clinical placements, including work with a substance misuse agency and a charity providing long-term therapy for GP-referred clients. Lisa also worked as a mentor and therapist with young adults through the YMCA.

Her background includes substantial experience with trauma, gained through work and training at a rape crisis service. She is insured and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, or BACP.

People who come to Lisa for help will find a practical focus on understanding what keeps anxiety and avoidance in place. The aim is to reduce distress, improve coping and help people start doing more of what matters to them.

How Lisa's approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they feel anxious or stuck around closeness and trust, and supports building more secure ways of relating.

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the work, using empathic listening and a non-judgemental stance to help people find their own answers. This approach suits those who need space to reflect and be heard.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the collaboration. Lisa will work with the person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, and adapt the plan as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, check the available session options before booking as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time and allow a quicker check-in during a lunch break or between commitments. It can also let a person choose sessions that are less intense while still practising new skills between meetings.

Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use online methods to continue therapeutic work, and Lisa will discuss what will suit each person during the initial matching and scheduling process.
