Online support
She also uses trauma-informed ways of working when past hurt is relevant. This means moving at a person’s pace, focusing on safety and grounding, and choosing exercises that feel manageable rather than overwhelming. Those methods are useful for people dealing with abuse, bereavement or difficult life events.
Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Lisa will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques to try, review how they feel and adjust the plan together if needed. The goal is a shared process that fits individual needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging works well for ongoing, brief support between appointments. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
