Chronic Pain Counselling in Leeds
I support individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed, experience anxiety, or feel unheard. I help you explore questions such as:
-How can I feel like myself again? How can I build better, more fulfilling relationships?
My work focuses on both conscious and unconscious patterns in our lives and relationships, helping you gain a deeper understanding of what may be impacting you. I work with a range of challenges, including high anxiety, depression, and the effects of emotional neglect.
I provide practical tools and resources to strengthen boundaries, improve communication, and work with somatic (bodily) trauma responses using EMDR.

I work collaboratively with clients to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space for exploring difficult emotions at your own pace. My approach is mostly person-centred, helping you feel safe and empowered to find your own solutions. I integrate other methods to meet your unique needs and have experience supporting clients with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and addiction. As a queer-friendly therapist, I strive to provide an inclusive and supportive space, welcoming diverse identities. I also aim to create an environment free from oppression and discrimination.

You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or quietly aching beneath the surface. Perhaps you’re navigating anxiety, low mood, shame, guilt, loss, or relational strain — often while holding things together for others. I’m Lisa, an accredited counsellor offering therapy online across the UK and face-to-face from my home in Grimsby.
You may want to feel heard, understood, and supported without pressure to perform or explain. Even if your goals feel unclear, something in you knows it’s time to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself. You don’t need to have it all figured out — just a willingness to begin.

This way of working can be particularly helpful if anxiety, stress or trauma show up physically through tension, fatigue, pain or shutdown.
I work in a gentle, integrative way, bringing together psychotherapy and somatic awareness. This can include inner child and parts work, exploring how protective responses developed and how earlier experiences may still be influencing how you feel in your body today. Sessions are paced carefully, supporting regulation, clarity and reconnection.

Clinical Psychologist specialising in anxiety, trauma and mind–body health.
Are you constantly tense, low in mood, or exhausted from holding everything together?
You may look like you’re coping, but inside feel overwhelmed, anxious or stuck. Anxiety can affect your sleep, confidence and relationships, especially alongside long-term health conditions or past experiences that still leave you on edge.
I have a particular interest in supporting adults and older people. If you’re tired of pushing through, therapy can help you feel calmer, more in control, and able to move forward.

Counselling That Fits Your Life.
I offer face to face and online counselling sessions to individuals and couples, so you can choose what feels right for you.
Counselling gives you the space to make sense of thoughts and feelings that may feel overwhelming, painful, or confusing. I provide a calm, confidential space where you can explore what’s going on, without judgement or pressure.
Together, we can begin to understand how past experiences may be affecting your present, and start working towards change that feels right for you. This process often leads to a deeper sense of self-understanding and more clarity in the way forward.

You've probably tried to change before, to eat less, eat more "normally" or promise yourself tomorrow will be different, but nothing seems to last for long. You're still stuck with all of the mental noise about food and your body. This isn't a willpower problem or a personality flaw; it's a sign you need specialised support rather than generic advice.
I'm a therapist specialising in eating disorders and disordered eating, including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, orthorexia, ARFID, OSFED, and body image issues. I work online across the UK and internationally, regardless of whether or not you have a diagnosis.

You may look like you’ve got it together—but inside, you’re overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in self-doubt.

You don’t have to carry it all alone. Therapy with me offers a warm, judgment-free space to feel understood, regain perspective, and gently reconnect with the version of yourself you’ve been missing.
