About Lisa
Lisa Szramowski offers a calm, down-to-earth space for people feeling overwhelmed by stressful life moments. She aims to help individuals who are anxious, grieving, struggling with low self esteem, or managing depression.

She explains things plainly and works to make sessions feel steady and predictable. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small steps that build confidence.
Background and approach
Clients are offered techniques to manage stress, boost motivation, and handle grief and loss. Lisa holds BACP which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She brings seven years of professional experience supporting people through life transitions and ongoing health challenges.
Her background includes helping with attachment concerns, abandonment worries, and the strain of blended family arrangements. Her practice also addresses relationship patterns such as codependency, commitment doubts, and communication problems. She supports people facing chronic pain, illness or disability, and those coping with divorce, fertility issues, guilt, or feelings of emptiness.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Lisa aims to create a non-judgemental space where feelings can be named and worked through at a pace that suits the client.

How evidence-based approaches work online
Lisa draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear strategies and practical change. One common approach uses structured techniques to manage anxiety and low mood, teaching breathing, grounding and behaviour changes to reduce overwhelm and build confidence. Another approach addresses grief and loss through paced conversations and tasks that help people remember, mourn and gradually adjust to life after loss.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. Together they review what helps, adjust the plan as progress is made, and pick techniques that fit daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can fit into work breaks or when a simpler check-in is better. Live chat and messaging let people send short updates, use written check-ins between sessions, and access support without needing to be on camera. These options give flexibility for different routines and access needs.
