About Lisa
With nine years of overall clinical experience, she has spent seven years providing counselling at Leicester Women’s Counselling Centre and at First Step, an organisation supporting male survivors of sexual abuse and rape. Her practice has developed through regular continuing professional development and specialised training to meet the needs of people living with anxiety, depression and complex trauma.
Originally qualifying as a Holistic Therapist in 1998, Lisa observed that the time spent talking with clients was often as beneficial as physical treatments. That experience shaped a person-centred foundation for her work. She now describes her practice as integrative and holistically tailored, combining core counselling conditions - empathy, non-judgement and respect - with approaches chosen to suit each person’s goals and circumstances. She is DBS and GDPR compliant and maintains professional insurance and standards.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, non-judgemental relationship that helps people explore their feelings and build self-awareness. It supports issues like low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and coping with life changes by placing the client’s experience at the centre of the work.
Trauma-Focused Therapy offers structured ways to address the impact of traumatic events, helping people process memories and reduce the ongoing effects of trauma and abuse. It can be useful for complex trauma, survivors of sexual abuse, and related stress responses.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and grounding skills to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. These techniques can help with anxiety, stress, sleep problems and managing strong emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lisa Wan works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts the plan over time as progress and priorities evolve.
Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging provides flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits or those living at a distance. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access therapists and licensed professionals from different locations while tailoring the format to what works best for the individual.
