Rewire your brain for less stress and more resilience
THINK well, FEEL well, BE well
Integrative Counselling, EMDR, Coaching & Training in Wilmslow, Alderley Edge and Online
Neuroscience-informed solution focused therapy and coaching to help you feel calmer, more in control, and better able to handle life’s challenges.
Hi, I’m Lisa and I help people to use the brain‑mind‑body connection so they can reduce stress and axniety, process difficult experiences and build emotional resilience to create lasting change.
As someone who has lived with chronic illness for my most of my life, things changed dramatically for me when I really understood the brain-mind-body connection and it can support mental, emotional and physical wellbeing. My mission is to help others do the same so, they too can feel empowered to take control of their lives.
I’m a multi-award winning, senior accredited counsellor and psychotherapist with over 15 years’ professional experience specialising in applied neuroscience and brain health.
Bening a senior accredited therapist means my clinical practice and further training has been independently assessed by my professional membership and regulatory body, and meets the new ScopeEd C enhanced professional standards, so you are in safe hands.
I am also a qualified supervisor, holding a postgraduate diploma in counselling supervision.
You don’t have to know what kind of therapy you need
Most people come to me feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to start. You might not know what type of approach you need and that’s completely normal.
That’s why I offer one integrative service.
Together, we’ll blend counselling, EMDR, therapeutic coaching and NLP in a way that supports your brain and nervous system.
You just have to show up as you are and I’ll guide you through the rest.
I know that reaching out and asking for support can feel incredibly daunting, especially when you may not know what kind of therapist or approach would be most useful.
That’s why I offer a free, 30 minute no obligation call to answer any questions you may have and to see if I’m the right fit for you.

Why Neuroscience Matters...
Working with your brain, not against it
Your thoughts, emotions and behaviours aren’t random, they’re shaped by your brain, nervous system and life experience.
When life becomes overwhelming, your brain adapts to keep you safe… but sometimes those protective responses outstay their welcome.
Applied neuroscience helps you understand:
- Why stress and overwhelm feel so consuming
- Why you react the way you do
- Why you struggle to switch off or rest
- How trauma impacts the brain
- How the nervous system can learn new patterns
And the most powerful part? Your brain can adapt and rewire.
Our brains have an incredible ability to ‘rewire’ themselves based on experience, this is called Neuroplasticity.
With the right support, new pathways can form that lead to more calm, clarity and resilience. My integrative approach uses approaches within this neuroscience framework to optimise this process.
A safe, supportive space
Whether you’re navigating stress, burnout, anxiety, trauma, chronic illness or simply feeling overwhelmed by life, you’ll be met with warmth, compassion and science-backed guidance.
I believe in therapy that should be:
Down-to-earth and human
Informed by neuroscience, not guesswork
A collaboration where you have agency
Empowering, not overwhelming
