About me
You may be reading this feeling totally exhausted, anxious, burnout and at a loss as to what is the best way forward? Finding it diffcult to switch off, or waking in the night feeling like you cannot stop thinking about the day just gone and the day to come?
Whatever has bought you here, you don't have to work through it alone. You've taken an important step towards recovering yourself.
I'm Lisa, a BACP accredited therapist in my 10th year of practice. Having experienced anxiety and burnout myself, I understand how difficult it can be and that we don't always see it coming. I also know how professional and compassionate counselling can support us to feel able to recover.
Alongside professional expertise in mindfulness, neuroscience and interpersonal neurobiology (IPNB), I offer a compassionate space to recover, reconnect and rediscover yourself.
Counselling can take place:
Online/telephone
Outdoor nature based in Brentwood
In room in Warley (5 minutes from Brentwood station)
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an Integrative counsellor and an Accredited member of the BACP.
I am also a Level 6 clinical supervisor.
I have trained under Dr Dan Siegel in Interpersonal neurobiology. This incorporates attachement, mindfulness and neuroscience.
I am an associate counsellor for a wilderness-based charity in Essex, offering counselling to children and young people in a natural setting.
I am a qualified Nature Guide with BEES (Biodiversity and Environmental Education Society)
I have worked in private practice for over 9 years and in this time have offered in-room, outdoor and online sessions.
I have engaged in additional training to support my outdoor practice, and have also trained many other counsellors taking their practice outside.
I have previously volunteered for 2 years at a local hospice as a bereavement support volunteer.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
