Lisa Moynihan

I offer a supportive and non judgemental supervisory space where counsellors and psychotherapists can reflect openly on their work.

My training integrates psychodynamic, person centred, transactional analysis and cognitive behavioural theories, alongside an existential lens for exploring meaning and lived experience. I also work from a trauma informed perspective. I place strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for meaningful change in both therapeutic work and supervision.

I am comfortable supervising across a range of settings and bring experience from counselling agencies, IAPT, as well as over ten years in private practice. Sessions can take place online or in person and are available for 60 or 90 minutes.

Our first session will be an opportunity for me to get to know more about you, your practice and your training.  We will discuss any professional development themes you may have and your expectations for supervision.

My working days are Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday

With many years of experience working in the NHS, voluntary sector and private practice, I offer both short and long term therapy for a wide range of emotional difficulties including:

• A significant or unexpected life-change

• Low self-esteem, or a feeling of being not good enough

• Anxiety which can range from constant worry to panic attacks or Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

• Depression or low mood, handling uncomfortable feelings of loss, heartache, anger

• Managing relationships; trusting people, feeling like an equal partner rather than feeling taken advantage of and resentful.

I also have training in working with people who have experienced trauma either in childhood or as an adult. This includes growing up in challenging circumstances, being exposed to abuse, neglect, domestic violence or addiction, or perhaps going through a life changing event.  

I work from a discreet garden office in Teddington.  My aim is to offer you a warm, supportive, non-judgemental place to talk about your life and anything that may be confusing, painful or uncomfortable, and to experience some of the following results

• A positive change in how you think & feel about yourself

• Able to look to the future, & open to the possibility of new & different experiences

• Self-discovery leading to greater self-understanding & insight, feeling more compassionate & accepting of who you are.

• Feeling stronger and better equipped able to cope with life's challenges

• Improved relationships with family and partners

• Make peace with your past
