Lisa Ali, NCPS Therapist - Accredited Member (MNCPS Accred) #NCS19-08182

Hi, I’m Lisa., I am an empathic and understanding individual and I am passionate about my profession as a counsellor. I have a qualification in a BA Honors degree in Humanistic counselling, and I specialize in Person Centred therapy and I hold several years of counselling experience, and I genuinely love to support people whilst considering their individual needs. I offer a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and accepted just as you are. As an empathic and understanding therapist, I’ve supported individuals through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges. I know how difficult it can be to reach out for support especially for the first time. That’s why I work at your own pace, building a warm, trusting therapeutic relationship where you feel comfortable, valued, and empowered.


What I Specialize In:
• Anxiety and panic attacks
• Depression and low mood
• Trauma and PTSD
• Low self-esteem and self-worth
• Stress, burnout, and life transitions
• Emotional dysregulation and overwhelm
• Relationship issues and communication difficulties
• People-pleasing, co-dependency, and boundary setting
• Inner child healing and self-identity exploration
• Confidence building and self-expression
• Working with neurodivergent clients, including individuals with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC), ADHD, and related neurodevelopmental profiles with a focus on emotional regulation, sensory and social overwhelm, masking and identity, self-advocacy, and navigating neurotypical environments


How I Can Help:
I believe therapy is a powerful journey of self-discovery, growth, and healing. My person-centred approach means I tailor each session to your unique needs and emotional wellbeing. You are always in control and I’m here to walk alongside you with empathy, honesty, acceptance, and respect for your lived experience.

Together, we can work on:
• Gaining clarity and direction in your life
• Understanding and unlearning unhealthy patterns or beliefs
• Building self-confidence, autonomy, and emotional resilience
• Exploring your identity, values, and inner strengths
• Developing healthy coping skills for anxiety, depression, and trauma
• Learning emotional regulation tools and how to manage triggers
• Using psychoeducation to better understand your thoughts, behaviors, and emotions
• Reconnecting with your authentic self and inner voice

Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, lost, or disconnected, you don’t have to go through this alone. I'm here to offer a space where you can heal, reflect, and grow at your own pace and on your own terms.


Feel free to message me whenever you're ready. I’m here to listen.
