Lisa Finch

I have 20 years experience of working with adults and young people. I am a Humanistic Integrative Counsellor, with a down to earth approach.  I provide short term and long term counselling and psychotherapy, underpinned with extensive experience and training in relationships, parenting, mental health, trauma and addiction. 

I work both online via Google Meet and face to face. 

I am a Humanistic Integrative Counsellor/Psychotherapist and professionally qualified in 2002. I gained my CPCAB Accreditation in 2016. I work with both adults - individual, couples and parents, and young people. (2018 - CPCAB Level 5 in Young Peoples' Counselling 11+ and Accredited AFT Foundation Certificate in Family Therapy and Systemic Practice in 2009). I am also a CPCAB Level 6 qualified Supervisor. (see Supervisor's Profile.)

I have 20 years extensive experience in working with clients in managing their personal issues, relationships, responsibilities and lives. I have undertaken many training courses, which include areas such as addictions; attachment; child development; bereavement; mental health issues, including anxiety and depression; trauma, abuse and symptomatic effects, such as Post Traumatic Stress, dissociation, and chronic fatigue syndromes, for example. I have also have a Level 2 qualification in Understanding Autism and undertaking a specialised course in working with Older adults with depression. 

In the first session, I will take your contact details and go through the confidentiality agreement and contract. 

I will then use an assessment questionnaire to ascertain some background information, your current situation and concerns. 

Together we will agree an action plan that will give us a general direction for your therapy to begin. 

We will review and refine this as we work together.
