Lisa Gibson

Counsellor

Hello, I’m Lisa, a person-centred, trauma-informed counsellor working with young people aged 16+ and adults. I believe that each person has the inner capacity to heal, grow, and move forward, and I work in a way that helps you feel safe, supported, and in control throughout our sessions. With advanced training in trauma, I understand the lasting impact traumatic experiences can have on daily life, relationships, and sense of self. My aim is to offer a warm, compassionate space where you can begin to rebuild self-worth, strengthen self-trust, and reconnect with your own sense of empowerment. I work openly and without judgement or agenda, so you can make choices about the pace, focus, and approach of our work together.

I trained at the University of Salford, where I gained a PGDip in Counselling and Psychotherapy, and I also hold an Advanced Practitioner Certificate in working with PTSD and C-PTSD from the Complex Trauma Institute UK
