About me and my therapy practice
I am a qualified integrative psychotherapist and counsellor offering a compassionate, relaxed and confidential space to explore current and past issues which may be impacting your life. I additionally hold a PhD in Psychology and have spent many years working across the NHS and private mental health services, as well as charitable organisations, bereavement services and the education sector. This broad range of experience has allowed me to support people through a wide spectrum of emotional difficulties, including complex trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, self-esteem issues, cancer and chronic illness, bereavement, youth and adolescent development, and eating disorders.
Practice description
Finding the right therapist can feel like an overwhelming process and I appreciate that each person will be looking for different things from therapy. Whether you have a specific issue you would like to address, or just need space to talk freely in a supportive and non-judgemental environment, I seek to meet you there with empathy, openness and understanding. As an integrative therapist, I have trained in a range of therapeutic approaches which means we can tailor our sessions to suit your needs and explore ways of moving forwards together, at a pace you feel comfortable with.
My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed and primarily guided by psychodynamic and humanistic principles. This means we may explore how past and present experiences are shaping your thoughts, feelings and behaviours, whilst being mindful of the profound impact distressing and traumatic experiences can have on both our minds and bodies. Central to my practice is belief that the therapeutic relationship – our relationship – is integral in supporting an effective and positive experience of therapy. Clients have shared that they experience me as warm, open and personable; I seek to build a strong, trusting relationship where you can feel seen and heard, and gain a deeper understanding of yourself and the challenges you may be facing.
I offer both brief counselling for shorter periods where you can gain practical tools and knowledge for particular issues, as well as longer-term psychotherapy to explore your past and current experiences in more depth. Therapy can be a powerful resource for self-awareness, personal growth and healing, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Ultimately, my goal is to support you, in a collaborative way, to create lasting and meaningful change in your life.
I work with individuals aged 16 years and over.
My first session
If you are interested in working with me, please contact me via email (hello@lisacottertherapy.com), or by phone/text (07824466199) and I will aim to get back to you within 48-hours. We will then arrange a free, confidential 20-minute phone call to briefly discuss what brings you to therapy. I can explain more about how I work, and you will have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have. It is important to work with a therapist who feels like the right fit for you and there is no rush to decide whether you would like to book an initial session. If you do decide you would like to move forwards, we will agree on a time for an initial session at a mutually convenient time.
During the initial session you will get a sense of how we may work together. I will invite you to tell me about yourself and we can discuss your reasons for seeking therapy in more detail. We can then decide whether to go ahead with further sessions. Each therapy session is 50-minutes in length, and I typically work with clients on a weekly basis at a regular scheduled time. There is no obligation to book in for further sessions if this does not feel right for you.
