Lisa Martucci, BACP

Lisa Martucci is a counsellor (BACP) working in the United Kingdom with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on anxiety, low mood, stress and addictions, and also addresses issues such as codependency, attachment concerns and family of origin problems.

Lisa describes anxiety as something that can grow until avoidance takes over daily life. She talks through what keeps anxiety in place and uses plain explanations so people can see what is happening to them. Her work blends information about how anxiety works with motivational interviewing and practical body-based techniques.

Clients who come to Lisa can expect straightforward discussion of their patterns and concrete strategies to test out between sessions. She draws on client-centred listening alongside skills from dialectical behaviour approaches to help manage emotions and reduce avoidance. Mindfulness practices are used to ground the moment-to-moment experience rather than as abstract exercises.

Her background includes a Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Therapy and Counselling completed in 2022, clinical placements with a substance misuse agency, and long-term therapy work with a GP-referred charity. She has also worked with young adults through the YMCA and has trauma-informed experience from work at a rape crisis service.

Lisa is a registered member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and is insured. Practical next steps are to complete the initial matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the site booking tools.

People who are worn down by constant caregiving, people-pleasing or living around someone else’s crises may recognise the patterns she talks about and find the style of work useful.
