Lisa Blaine

Currently my practice days are Mondays - Thursdays between 8am and 6.30pm.

My fees are £50 per one hour session.

I am very happy to offer a free, no obligation 15-20 minute chat, either online or on the phone to help you to get a sense of if working with me feels right for you. You are also welcome to reach out with any questions you might have.

What if the anxiety, self-doubt, or emotional turmoil you feel are actually trying to help you? When we stop trying to get rid of or distract from our emotions, something changes. I offer walk and talk or online therapy and space to be curious about your emotions.

When you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed or stuck, it’s easy to see why you might want to ignore, distract from or try to get rid of these unpleasant feelings. But it doesn't work for more than a short time. And then the feelings come back.

                    Maybe you’d like to try something different?

When you allow your most difficult feelings to have the space to just be there as they are, without judging them or trying to change, fix or stop them, something new can happen. By becoming more curious and patient with your emotions, they start to soften and often change naturally on their own. 

The key isn’t managing your emotions differently - it’s relating to them differently.

​When there’s no forcing or pushing, and more noticing and acknowledging, you can finally start to hear what your emotions are trying to do for you and so the changes that come can feel gentle and kind. You start to build a kinder relationship towards your emotions. You start to see that all your emotions are actually on your side. Having someone beside you while you get curious can make a real difference. 

Feel intrigued and like to give it a try?  Send me an email or visit my website for more info.

Walk and Talk therapy

Walking alongside one another, in beautiful natural surroundings, can bring you a sense of calm which aids new perspectives. Difficult issues can feel easier to talk about outside and silences can feel natural, bringing space to reflect. Walking increases your blood flow, helping oxygen and nutrients move around your body, making you feel more alert and refreshed, releasing natural chemicals that make you feel calmer. From this calmer place with a wider perspective, we can turn towards difficult feelings with more curiosity.

Where do the sessions take place?

Outdoors, on the phone or online or a mixture to suit you.

Walk and talk therapy: Rodborough or Minchinhampton Common on the edge of Stroud.

We have a few different options of terrain from flat to hilly, all with beautiful views and easy, free parking. Please let me know your particular requirements.

In wet weather, I am happy to wrap up in waterproof clothes and still be outside if this suits you too. Alternatively, we can meet online or on the phone or rearrange it, if we can find a different mutually convenient time that week, or to postpone it to the following week, so please let me know how you feel about these options. It is always surprising to me how very few sessions in the year are actually not able to happen due to the weather. So often I notice how the weather looks much worse when we look at it from indoors than when we are out in it!

Although the commons are public places, there are huge spacious areas with very few people and if someone comes close by I generally encourage us to pause our talking a moment to maintain privacy, resuming when they have passed by. If you would like, our sessions can be a mixture of walking and sitting on a secluded bench with beautiful views.

I work with clients, long and short term, face to face outdoors and online, who come with issues including:

Depression, low self esteem

Anxiety, panic and stress

Feeling overwhelmed

Health and anxiety

Stress at work

Loss and bereavement

Living with chronic pain

Redundancy

Relationship issues

Traumatic Events

Long term illness

Anger issues

I have a passion for continual learning and discovering new ideas. I feel it is an honour to be a counsellor, to connect deeply with people, understand and share their inner worlds and help them bring about lasting change.

I believe that everyone has the ability to create positive changes for a happier, more fulfilling life, and that at times, we all need a little support to make it happen.
