About Natural Minds
Counselling can help people to change their lives and achieve their goals in life. Whether those goals are managing stress, or anxiety, emotional distress or going through major life changes, for example, the menopause or children leaving home, counselling can help you look at what’s holding you back and move forward with your life.
People can sometimes feel their fears and issues controlling their lives and holding them back in life. Counselling can help people to overcome issues, that may have been having a negative impact on their lives for days, months or years. Counselling can help us all to find out why we react in the way we do and how to change those behaviour patterns in our lives, so we can live our lives more freely in the future and live a life that feels more genuine for us all.
Prior to Natural Minds I followed a career in the corporate world so I know first-hand how stressful the working world can be and how making small positive changes in our lives can help to restore a healthy balance to our lives and help us all to live our lives more freely.
About Me
I am Lisa and I am the founder of Natural Minds, and I am a qualified Counsellor with a level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling.
I work in an integrative, person-centred way, which means that the client is at the centre of everything I do. In my work, I draw upon various counselling models and theories so I can use the right approach for each client on an individual basis. I believe that we all have the ability to grow and heal, regardless of what we have experienced in life. Counselling can help you start your journey towards healing and achieving your goals in life.
I have experience with a variety of clients who have experienced loss and bereavement, severe anxiety, low confidence, low self-esteem, stress, depression, emotional abuse, relationship issues and addictive behaviours.
I offer a safe, compassionate and completely confidential environment for Clients to express themselves in. I have completed further training to work with couples and to help them work through any relationship issues, they might be having. I am also a qualified Hypnotherapist with a Level 3 certificate in Hypnotherapy and Counselling Skills (Cert Hyp CS, AIM Awards). I have also completed further training in Anxiety and Stress management and Couples Counselling.
I have always been interested in the power of the mind and how our mental state can affect our whole lives. I also believe that physical and mental health are closely linked and both areas of health should be balanced and in harmony.
Please get in touch if you think counselling or hypnotherapy services can help you. I offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation to find out more about you and understand your needs and expectations of counselling. At Natural Minds you will find a safe, non-judgemental environment so you can be completely at ease.
I have a passion for helping people and believe that counselling and hypnotherapy can be really useful to help people through life’s often difficult journey.
I volunteer for two national charities who specialise in offering emotional support in person and over the telephone. I adhere to a code of Ethics that can be found here.
