Lisa Martucci , BACP

Lisa Martucci is an integrative therapist working in private practice who also provides supervision to other therapists. She brings 11 years of clinical experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression, and she draws on a broad additional focus that includes attachment and family-of-origin difficulties, caregiver stress, codependency, substance use concerns, and relationship challenges.

Her training includes a Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Therapy and Counselling, and her early clinical placements involved work with a substance misuse agency and a charity offering long-term therapy to GP-referred clients. She has further experience supporting young adults in mentoring and therapeutic roles with the YMCA and has undertaken extensive trauma-informed work with a rape crisis service. These roles have informed a practice that blends psychotherapeutic conversation with targeted techniques such as psychoeducation, motivational interviewing, and somatic-oriented bodywork when appropriate.

Lisa is a fully insured practitioner and a registered member of the BACP - the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists - and she works within the ethical framework that membership requires. Her approach is collaborative and tailored, aiming to help people understand how anxiety and low mood have developed, to reduce avoidant patterns, and to support re-engagement with meaningful aspects of life.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns formed in early relationships and how those patterns influence current connections and emotional responses. It can help people who struggle with abandonment, attachment issues, or recurring relationship difficulties by exploring needs, expectations, and repair strategies.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive behaviors, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It is useful for people dealing with strong mood swings, difficulties with emotion regulation, and patterns that contribute to stress or self-destructive coping.

Mindfulness Therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and gentle attention to thoughts and bodily experience, which can reduce rumination and increase tolerance for uncomfortable feelings. It supports work with anxiety, low mood, and stress by encouraging a steadier relationship to internal experience.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be explored collaboratively. The therapist will work with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible options including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing people to access licensed professionals and therapists from different locations and at times that fit their schedules. This flexibility can make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
