About Me

Hello, I’m Lisa, and I began my counselling journey after feeling an internal pull to change direction.

​

For many years, I ran my own floristry business, which was a huge success. I had the privilege of working on celebrity weddings featured in Hello and OK Magazine. But after a while, the pressure started to take its toll—mentally and physically—and I knew I needed to make a change.

​

The one part of my business I loved most was working with people. I’d become a great listener, whether supporting bereaved clients, helping stressed brides, or mediating between families on wedding days. I realised that counselling would allow me to continue doing what I loved, but in a way that felt more aligned with who I wanted to be.

​

Before making any big decisions, I decided to volunteer with a domestic abuse charity to see if this path felt right for me. With their support, I thrived, and I knew counselling was the way forward.

​

It wasn’t an easy or quick journey. Balancing my floristry business, volunteering, family, and studying was challenging, but those years brought immense personal growth. They forced me to look inward, and in doing so, they changed me.

​

When people ask if I miss floristry, the truth is, I do—just a little. But I believe in moving forward, not back. My creative energy now finds expression in my beautiful garden, where I can sit quietly and watch nature remind me why I chose this path. Even when faced with adversity, nature has the incredible ability to survive, renew, and grow.

​

And that, for me, is what counselling is all about. When we feel truly heard and understood, we too can survive, renew, and grow.
