Lisa Swinney

Hi, my name is Lisa. I’m a trainee counselling psychologist. People describe me as warm, trustworthy and open-minded. I started my career as a solicitor and then worked in theatre so I have an understanding of both corporate and creative environments. For the last five years I’ve worked in mental health, with a workplace stress intervention and delivering therapy in community settings.

I use a person-centred approach, so will focus on you as an individual. You know yourself best and we’ll look together at what’s going on for you and explore your concerns and options. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is key – it creates the environment that facilitates greater self-awareness and greater recognition of your strengths and agency.
