Discovering growth in vulnerability
Welcome, and thank you for visiting Crescentia Therapy.
My name is Lisa I am a qualified integrative therapist who is dedicated to creating a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space to enable your growth and development. I know reaching out for support is hard and if you are reading this you have already taken that step, I would love to support you through the rest of your journey. I am a qualified integrative therapist with a person-centred approach being at my core, I integrate other approaches tailored to you as my client in our collaborative work.
From a young age I have been dedicated to helping others and this trait guided me into the counselling profession. I have lived experience of mental health conditions such as anxiety and stress and having personal therapy has helped me to overcome obstacles I have faced over the years; therefore, I appreciate how important the relationship is to enable change to be brought.
Through my many years of studying for my Level 4 counselling diploma and having gained valuable experience, working with 3 agencies I have helped support those involved in the criminal justice system, and worked with issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, infertility, relationships, low self-esteem, addiction, substance misuse and bereavement.
Established in 2025, Crescentia Therapy was founded with a simple yet powerful intention: to create a space where people feel safe enough to be vulnerable, and supported enough to grow. Our name, Crescentia, comes from the Latin root for growth – a word that perfectly captures our belief in the healing potential within every person.
Our guiding principle, “Delivering Growth in Vulnerability,” reflects the heart of what we do. I honour the courage it takes to open up, and I believe that true change begins when you feel safe, seen, and heard. Therapy with me is not about fixing what’s broken – it’s about nurturing what’s already within you.
I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where clients are encouraged to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences at their own pace. Whether you're facing anxiety, low mood, trauma, relationship issues, or simply seeking deeper self-understanding, Crescentia is a space where all parts of you are welcome.
At the core of my work is my commitment to inclusivity, equality, and emotional safety. I support people from all backgrounds, identities, and life experiences with deep respect and care. My ethos is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and gentle empowerment – because I know that sustainable personal growth only happens when you feel emotionally safe.
Crescentia Therapy exists to walk alongside you on your journey – not ahead of you, not behind you, but with you.
Crescentia Therapy is founded on a culture of inclusivity, equality, and emotional safety. I welcome and honour individuals from all walks of life, embracing the richness of diverse backgrounds and experiences. My ethos is rooted in supportiveness, integrity, and authenticity – creating a therapeutic environment where you are encouraged to explore, reflect, and grow at your own pace. I believe that every person deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued, and it is m privilege to hold that space with care and professionalism.
“At Crescentia Therapy, my mission is simple. I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel empowered to explore your thoughts and emotions. I am committed to walking alongside you with empathy, compassion, and respect – supporting your journey toward healing, understanding, and personal growth”
