Lisa McAndrew helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She supports those coping with life changes and working through addictions, relationship or family problems. Lisa also addresses trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, anger and mood swings.
She uses clear, straightforward language so people understand what happens in sessions. Lisa follows a person-centred approach that keeps the client's experience at the heart of therapy.
Background and approach
She combines that with practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and try different ways of responding. Hypnotherapy and solution-focused techniques are also used when they fit a person’s goals. Sessions are offered in English and Lisa works with clients across the United Kingdom and internationally.
Her credential is NCPS and she brings seven years of professional experience to her practice. She aims to make the first steps into therapy easier for people who feel unsure or overwhelmed. In early sessions Lisa listens to what matters most and helps set clear, achievable goals.
She balances listening with practical strategies so people leave with something they can use between meetings. Over time she reviews progress and adjusts the plan if needed. People who choose Lisa can expect a calm, non-judgemental space to talk.
The focus is on small, steady changes that fit into everyday life. Work can cover worries, addictions, attachment questions, obsessive patterns and women's issues among other concerns.
How Lisa’s approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience first and creates space to talk about what matters. It focuses on listening, acceptance and helping people find their own solutions, which can be especially useful for worries, grief and relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills for anxiety, low mood, obsessions and phobias.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lisa will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. She uses that discussion to choose or blend methods so the plan matches the person’s needs and pace.
Online therapy offers flexibility and can fit around work, study and family life. Video calls let people use visual cues and mirrors a face-to-face meeting, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or people prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text messaging suits shorter check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and try new skills in everyday settings.
