Integrative Therapist in Cardiff and Online

I'm Lisa Barkley, a qualified integrative therapist with over three decades of experience supporting people. As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. My approach combines Person-Centred, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Schema Therapy, tailored to meet your unique needs.

I work with adults facing a diverse range of issues, including childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem challenges. My background in beauty therapy taught me the importance of helping people feel relaxed and confident, skills I now apply in my counselling practice.

With warmth and compassion, I'm here to support you in understanding yourself better, making positive changes, and rediscovering your inner wisdom. Together, we'll work towards helping you become the best version of yourself.

MORE ABOUT ME

What is Therapy?

Therapy, or counselling, is a collaborative journey we undertake together. It's not about me "fixing" you, but rather us working as partners to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. You are the expert on your life, and I'm here to walk alongside you, offering support, insights, and tools. We'll work at your pace, with you guiding the direction of our sessions. My role is to provide a safe, non-judgemental space where you can discover your own path to growth and healing.

How Therapy Can Help You

Our work together will equip you with valuable tools for self-reflection and personal growth. You'll develop a deeper understanding of your emotions, thoughts, and behaviours, and how they influence your life. We'll focus on building self-esteem, improving relationships, and enhancing your problem-solving skills. You'll learn to set healthy boundaries, manage stress more effectively, and cultivate self-compassion. As we progress, you may notice improved well-being, a greater sense of purpose, and increased confidence to live authentically.

Whatever you're struggling with, I'm here to provide compassionate support and practical strategies to help you move forward and thrive.
