Lisa Martucci

Lisa Martucci is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, low mood and problems with self‑esteem. She welcomes people who feel stuck by avoidance or who find anxiety taking over daily life. Her approach aims to help clients regain control and reconnect with things they value.

Lisa uses clear, practical steps in sessions. She explains what is happening, offers psychoeducation, and works with motivation to support change. Her work has included body‑focused techniques alongside talking therapies to address how anxiety shows up physically.

She trained in an integrative Postgraduate Diploma in Therapy and Counselling in 2022 and holds membership of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists, BACP. Her clinical placements included work with a substance misuse agency and a charity providing long‑term therapy for GP‑referred clients.

Lisa has worked with young adults as a mentor and therapist at the YMCA and has substantial experience with trauma through training and work at a rape crisis service. She also offers supervision to other therapists alongside her independent practice.

Sessions follow an accessible, person‑centred style that pays attention to relationships and feelings. Lisa mixes approaches such as attachment work, emotion‑focused methods, dialectical behaviour strategies and mindfulness to match the needs of each person. She aims to help people find practical ways to manage symptoms and move towards the life they want.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Attachment‑based work looks at how close relationships affect current feelings and behaviour and helps people understand patterns that may keep them anxious or stuck. It can be useful for issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties and relationship‑linked distress.

Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person’s own priorities, giving space for them to find their own solutions while the counsellor offers empathy and reflection.

Dialectical behaviour therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving tolerance of distress and strengthening communication. It can help with mood instability, impulsive behaviours and difficulties regulating strong feelings.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk through what feels most useful and adapt sessions to a person’s goals, preferences and day‑to‑day needs in a collaborative way.

Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑ins when needed. A therapist can also suggest ways to make sessions practical, for example using breathing or grounding exercises between meetings to support progress.
