About Lisa Maltby

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression or feeling uncertain about life’s direction?
I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live their best life.
My compassionate and non-judgmental approach towards therapy can bring about empowerment and positive change.

I am a seasoned Integrative and Humanistic Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with over 20 years of experience, specializing in supporting vulnerable adolescents, young adults, and parents. My expertise lies in bereavement, trauma, loss, and a diverse range of counseling issues. I have a proven track record in aiding recovery from chronic anxiety, depression, diagnosed mental health conditions, trauma, and abuse. My professional background includes roles in private and state schools in the UK and internationally. I currently manage a private practice and collaborate with two local agencies in Hampshire, in addition to my experience as an NHS primary care counsellor. I offer both short-term and long-term counseling contracts, employing a range of therapeutic approaches such as Integrative therapy, Psychodynamic therapy, brief dynamic therapy, and Bereavement Counselling. My services cater to individuals (adults and young people aged 16–20 years), couples, and include well-being and mindfulness retreats.
