Lisa Zerafa

My name is Lisa, I qualified as a Integrative Counsellor in 2008 at the prestigious Iron Mill Institute in the beautiful town of Exeter in Devon. My training was centred around connecting both science and art to understand the human condition. The connection of both mind and body and the interplay between the two. 

I have a diverse and colourful background with regards to job roles. In my early career I worked as a chef at sea. I returned home and worked as a mental health support worker in residential and educational settings. I then worked for a number of years as a student Counsellor, before I created Dawn Therapy Counselling Practice. 

I offer young adults from 16 + and adults sessions via zoom or telephone from the comfort of your own home. I work intuitively and respectfully within your comfort zone. We compassionately explore the areas within your life story that you feel you would like to understand and process, to move forward more freely and confidently in your next life chapter. 

As the session is entirely related around you, we can explore your feelings, wants, needs, dreams, beliefs and values. As I truly believe only one a person is heard can a person begin to heal. 

I work from a Therapy room nestled in the chiltern hills. I am trained as a Integrative Counsellor, which means I use talking therapy whilst integrating different counselling theories to suit your individual needs. It really does depend on your chosen way of working. Due to my career history and training, I specialise with working with woman, families and young people 16+. I welcome all people, with all beliefs and values with open arms.
