About Lisa

Lisa Tabanivesikula welcomes people who are looking for practical support with work and wellbeing, stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns or life changes. She uses a calm, interactive style and focuses on helping people take small, manageable steps forward. Lisa’s opening sentences in a first session are likely to be gentle and straightforward, so clients can explain what matters most to them.

She blends several approaches to suit each person rather than following one fixed method. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. Hypnotherapy may be offered where guided imagery or focused attention can help with sleep, stress or habit change. Client-centred work provides space to be heard and understood.

Lisa trained and works as a counsellor and holds the NCPS credential. She has four years of professional experience and is based in the United Kingdom. She can talk through concerns such as workplace stress, parenting strain, grief, trauma, addiction, eating and body image issues, chronic illness, and money worries.

Sessions aim to feel collaborative, practical and paced to each person’s needs. Lisa uses listening and questions to build understanding, then suggests small changes and exercises to try between meetings. The focus is on what helps clients manage day-to-day and make progress toward their goals.

People can expect straightforward guidance about next steps and a supportive space to reflect on work, wellbeing and personal goals. Lisa also works with people from outside the UK and can discuss how to begin.

How Lisa’s approaches translate to online support

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people make sense of their feelings. This approach is useful when the main need is to be understood and to develop self-awareness.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going. It breaks these down into practical steps and simple exercises, which can help with anxiety, sleep problems, low mood and workplace stress.

Hypnotherapy uses guided attention and imagery to support changes in habits, stress response and sleep. It is offered as an option when people want a different route to practising new ways of thinking and relaxing.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or making it simpler to have shorter check-ins during a workday. Because session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm which options are available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to continue the same kinds of therapeutic conversations they would have in person, while helping clients bring changes into everyday routines.
