About Lisa
Lisa Szramowski helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, low mood, anxiety or big life changes. She writes simply and calmly, and aims to make initial steps feel manageable. Lisa holds BACP accreditation and works in English for people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Lisa offers a down-to-earth style. She listens and reflects so a person can feel heard. Conversations focus on practical techniques that build confidence and emotional resources.
Background and approach
Her work covers grief and loss, self-esteem and motivation, and coping with chronic illness or sudden change. She also supports people dealing with abandonment feelings, attachment concerns and relationship patterns such as codependency or commitment worries. Sessions aim to identify unhelpful patterns and teach tools to respond differently.
Those tools can include grounding strategies for anxiety, paced planning for change, and ways to strengthen personal boundaries and communication. Lisa has seven years of professional experience as a psychotherapeutic counsellor while working predominantly with women in other roles over a longer period. She describes her way of working as empathic and practical, with an emphasis on being seen, heard and understood.
She invites people to take small steps and build on them over time.

Online support
Another useful method concentrates on identifying unhelpful thinking or behaviour patterns and replacing them with small, manageable changes. This approach helps with low mood, motivation and building confidence by setting realistic goals and tracking progress.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to choose methods that suit their needs, goals and preferences and will adapt the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be a good shorter option with less bandwidth, and messaging is useful for regular check-ins or when writing feels easier. These options aim to offer practical flexibility so people can access support in ways that suit them.
