Counselling & Supervision in Crewe — About Lisa
Some things need a space where there is no need to hold back, protect anyone, or manage how you come across. A space that is truly yours. That is what Lisa offers — and she has been offering it, in her tranquil outdoor office in Crewe and online across the UK, for a significant number of years.
Lisa is a qualified and highly experienced counsellor and counselling supervisor based in Crewe, Cheshire. She holds an L4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and an Advanced CBT Diploma, and is an Accredited Member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She also has experience of Rewind Therapy, Transactional Analysis (TA), Emotionally Focused Tapping (EFT), life coaching, and a High Functioning Syndrome Awareness Diploma, alongside a Certificate in Supervision that enables her to offer clinical supervision to other counsellors and therapists.
Lisa has significant specialist experience in women’s hormonal mental health — particularly PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder), perimenopause, and menopause. She has personal lived experience of PMDD, which brings a depth of understanding and authenticity to her work in this area that is rarely found in a clinical setting. She also brings substantial experience supporting neurodivergent clients, including those with ASD and ADHD, drawn from her background in the care sector.
Background & Experience
Before and alongside her counselling practice, Lisa worked in the care sector — an experience that gave her a deep, practical understanding of neurodivergent individuals and their families, and shaped her ability to adapt her approach to meet a wide range of communication styles, emotional needs, and life circumstances.
Lisa’s specialist interest in women’s hormonal mental health grew organically from both professional experience and personal lived experience. She has worked with many clients navigating the psychological and emotional dimensions of PMDD, perimenopause, and menopause — conditions that are frequently underserved in mainstream counselling — and her own experience of PMDD means she brings something to this work that goes beyond clinical training alone.
Lisa also offers clinical supervision to other counsellors and therapists — a natural extension of her extensive experience, her NCPS Accredited status, and her formal supervision qualification. She works with supervisees both locally in Crewe and online across the UK.
She maintains regular professional supervision, is committed to ongoing professional development, and approaches every client and supervisee with the same quality of attentiveness and care.
Therapeutic Approaches
Lisa draws on a broad range of approaches, integrating them according to each individual’s needs.
Integrative Counselling
Lisa’s integrative foundation allows her to draw thoughtfully from multiple therapeutic frameworks — adapting her approach rather than applying a fixed method. This flexibility is central to her practice. Integrative counselling in Crewe and online across the UK.
Advanced Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT provides practical tools for understanding the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours — developing more constructive patterns of responding and building coping strategies for anxiety, stress, and emotional difficulties. Lisa’s Advanced CBT Diploma gives her a deeper and more nuanced application of this approach than foundation-level training. CBT therapist Crewe and online Cheshire.
Rewind Therapy
Rewind Therapy is an evidence-informed approach for processing traumatic memories without requiring clients to relive them in detail. It works by helping the mind reconsolidate distressing memories in a way that reduces their emotional charge and intrusiveness — often in fewer sessions than traditional trauma processing approaches. Rewind Therapy in Crewe and online.
Transactional Analysis (TA)
TA is a framework for understanding how early experiences shape the patterns of relating, thinking, and feeling we carry into adult life. Integrated within Lisa’s counselling practice, it supports clients in recognising and shifting long-standing patterns in their relationships with themselves and others.
Emotionally Focused Tapping (EFT)
EFT combines elements of cognitive therapy with acupressure — using gentle tapping on specific points while focusing on distressing thoughts or feelings to reduce their emotional intensity. Lisa offers EFT both as a standalone session and integrated within counselling work. EFT therapy in Crewe and online.
Life Coaching
Alongside her counselling practice, Lisa offers life coaching sessions — a forward-focused, goal-oriented approach that supports clients in clarifying what they want, identifying what is getting in the way, and taking practical steps toward meaningful change. Life coaching in Crewe and online.
PMDD, Perimenopause and Women’s Hormonal Mental Health
This is one of Lisa’s most significant areas of specialist practice — and one that she is deeply committed to.
Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) is a severe, cyclical condition in which hormonal changes in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle trigger significant psychological symptoms — including severe anxiety, depression, rage and dissociation in the days before menstruation. It is frequently misdiagnosed, minimised, or simply not understood in clinical and social settings, which means many people with PMDD have spent years feeling that their experiences are not real, not serious, or not treatable.
Lisa has lived experience of PMDD. This means she does not simply understand PMDD from a clinical perspective — she understands from the inside what it is to live with the cyclical disruption, the uncertainty, and the often profound impact on relationships, work, and sense of self. For clients with PMDD, this distinction matters. PMDD counsellor Crewe · PMDD therapy Cheshire · PMDD support online UK.
Lisa also has significant experience supporting clients navigating perimenopause and menopause — periods of hormonal transition that frequently bring anxiety, depression, mood instability, identity shifts, and a disrupted sense of self that mainstream counselling does not always address with sufficient depth or understanding.

Neurodivergent-Affirming Counselling
Lisa has a significant background in supporting neurodivergent clients — including those with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and related presentations — developed through her care sector experience and supported by her High Functioning Syndrome Awareness Diploma.
Her neurodivergent-affirming approach means she adapts genuinely to different communication styles, sensory preferences, and ways of processing — not simply adjusting surface features but working in a way that is structurally appropriate for neurodivergent experience. She also works with partners and family members of neurodivergent individuals, supporting them in understanding and navigating the relational dimensions that often arise.

Clinical Supervision for Counsellors and Therapists
Lisa offers clinical supervision to qualified and trainee counsellors and therapists — both in Crewe and online across the UK. Her NCPS Accredited status and formal Certificate in Supervision, combined with extensive counselling experience, make her a well-placed supervisor for practitioners at various stages of their professional development.
Supervision with Lisa provides a reflective, supportive space to explore client work, ethical questions, personal and professional development, and the challenges that arise in practice. She draws on her integrative background and specialist experience — including neurodivergence, women’s mental health, and trauma — to offer supervision that is both practically grounded and therapeutically informed.

Further Areas of Focus
Alongside her specialist areas, Lisa works with a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties in Crewe and online.
Bereavement and loss
Lisa has particular depth in bereavement counselling — understanding grief as something that extends well beyond the death of a loved one to include relationship endings, loss of identity, unfulfilled futures, and the grief that accompanies significant life transitions. Bereavement counsellor Crewe and Cheshire.
Domestic and narcissistic abuse
Lisa specialises in supporting individuals recovering from controlling, manipulative, and abusive relationships — including narcissistic abuse — helping them process the trauma, understand what happened, and reconnect with their own sense of self and confidence.

Anxiety and depression
