About Lisa Johnston

Psychotherapist and counsellor in Dublin

​

A little about who I am, how I work, and what you can expect from working together.

​​

Hi I'm Lisa.  I’m a qualified psychotherapist and counsellor in Dublin, and an accredited member of the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP). I hold a Master’s degree in Psychotherapy from Dublin Business School.

​

I offer in-person psychotherapy in Dublin and online sessions across Ireland and the UK.

​

I believe the relationship between therapist and client is central to the work we do together. My approach is humanistic and integrative, which means I recognise that each person brings their own experiences, needs and perspective, and that therapy should be shaped around the individual.

​

In a typical session with me I will listen to try to understand, be present with you, ask open questions, making sure you are comfortable with the pace.  I will work collaboratively with you and am very open to and welcome feedback. 

​

I believe that the most important thing in counselling and psychotherapy is the relationship between the therapist and client.

My approach is humanistic and integrative, which means that I recognise that everyone is unique and requires an individualised approach to therapy. ​

 

Sometimes I will gently challenge you in order to maybe provide a new perspective or challenge critical self beliefs. And sometimes I get it wrong and I welcome being challenged, providing a safe and non defensive way allowing you to practice giving feedback.  I will use feedback to guide our sessions which is a part of my collaborative approach. 

​

I believe that clients are the experts on their own lives, and sometimes having a sounding board can be very comforting and supportive.
