About Lisa
Lisa Martucci is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with 11 years' experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and depression. She also works with issues like abandonment, attachment problems, family of origin difficulties and caregiver stress.
Lisa uses straightforward talking therapy combined with practical tools. She draws on client-centred work and attachment-based ideas to help people feel understood and to map patterns that keep them stuck. She also uses elements of dialectical behaviour therapy, emotionally-focused techniques and mindfulness to give clear skills for managing emotion and distress.
Her background includes a Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Therapy and Counselling completed in 2022, and clinical placements at a substance misuse agency and a long-term therapy charity for GP referrals. She has worked with young adults as a mentor and therapist through the YMCA and has experience in services supporting survivors of sexual violence.
Sessions tend to include some psychoeducation, motivational interviewing and body-based work to help people reconnect with everyday life. Lisa aims to break down avoidance patterns and build practical ways to re-engage with work, study, relationships and social life. She describes the process as collaborative and goal-focused, with attention to how patterns from early relationships affect current wellbeing.
People often begin with an initial consultation to outline goals and agree a plan. The work that follows can be short term or open-ended depending on what each person needs and how quickly they want to make changes.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current responses. Online sessions can help identify patterns that affect close relationships and reduce reactivity in day-to-day life. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. That approach helps people feel understood and to clarify goals while working at their own pace. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness, useful when anxiety or impulsive behaviours get in the way of work and relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to decide which methods suit the client's needs, goals and preferences. That might mean combining attachment work with skills training or using mindfulness alongside motivational interviewing to support change.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they fit around study, early careers and travel, and they can make it easier to keep to a regular schedule. Other practical benefits include shorter check-ins when time is limited and less need to travel for appointments. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt the work to online meetings in ways that fit everyday life without assuming a particular format.
