Lisa Dobinson , BACP

Lisa Dobinson is a UK-licensed counsellor who brings six years of professional practice to an integrative humanistic approach. She draws on person-centred and Gestalt ideas to create a flexible therapeutic space where verbal material and the body�s expression can both be explored. Her training in Ireland included group work, which sharpened her ability to notice nonverbal cues and use the body�s signals to illuminate what may be unspoken.

With a strong attunement to somatic experience, she pays attention to how emotions show up physically and uses that awareness as a guide during sessions. She also completed relational training with Relate and holds a relational qualification that supports work with couples and relationship difficulties. Complementing this, she uses systemic thinking to help clients recognise transgenerational patterns and understand how family dynamics may shape present challenges.

Lisa has experience supporting people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strains, loss, career changes, and parenting or family difficulties. She has worked with individuals, couples, and parent-child dyads. Committed to ongoing learning, she engages regularly in continuing professional development and seeks her own clinical support in order to be fully present for clients. She views each person as the expert on their life and considers it a privilege to accompany people as they take the courageous step into therapy and navigate life�s challenges.
