About Lisa
Lisa Martucci helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, trauma, addictions, and problems with self-esteem. She writes plainly and meets individuals who want to understand why they feel stuck and find practical ways to move forward. Lisa holds a BACP credential which she completed after clinical placements and several years of hands-on work.
She uses short-term focused work alongside longer-term support, depending on what someone needs.
How Lisa works
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current struggles. She also uses client-centred listening to help people feel heard and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills for managing strong emotions. Lisa trained with a postgraduate diploma in integrative therapy and counselling, finishing in 2022.
During training she worked with a substance misuse agency and with a charity providing long-term therapy to GP-referred clients. That practical experience included mentoring and therapy work with young adults through the YMCA and trauma-related work at a rape crisis service. In sessions she mixes clear explanations with practical tools.
That can include psychoeducation, motivational interviewing, and body-focused techniques to help with anxiety and avoidance. Clients who have been anxious for years sometimes see noticeable change within a relatively short period when they engage in focused work. She runs an independent practice in the United Kingdom and also offers supervision to other therapists.
Lisa conducts sessions in English and works by appointment rather than through open drop-in services.

Online support options
How Lisa's approaches translate to online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and behaviour. Online work can help people notice patterns in how they attach to others and build different ways of relating to reduce anxiety and isolation.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and support. The counsellor provides a non-judgemental space where people can speak freely and be helped to find their own solutions, which suits phone or video conversations well.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for handling intense emotions and reducing harmful coping. Practical DBT tools such as grounding, distress tolerance and emotion regulation can be practised between sessions and reviewed in chat or messaging exchanges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, preferences and current difficulties and then suggest which methods might help most. That decision is made together and can change as therapy progresses.
Online formats offer flexibility and different ways to engage. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit quieter audio-only check-ins, live chat works for shorter exchanges, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection and homework. These options help fit therapy into busy days and make it easier to keep practising skills between sessions.
