The Well Mind was developed because I have a tried and tested way to support people through their most difficult times and get them where they want to be, without spending years in therapy. It addresses anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, self esteem, resilience, increases a range of coping strategies, creates healthy patterns, improves communication skills, offers family and relationship support.

I have known Lisa for nearly 3 years ago, I joined a family group in Liverpool desperate for help with my son who was addicted to crack cocaine, using heroin to come down and any other drug he could lay his hands on, he had been an addict for 13 years, I was exhausted mentally and physically.
Lisa helped others like me to rationalise the sheer chaos and fear that surrounds drug addiction of a loved one.
Lisa has tremendous perseverance and resilience and is one tough lady with an amazing talent to be able to help people, over and over again, young and old, children, mums and dads, she has given them the tools to make the right decisions. Lisa has helped so many people to change their lives for the better, I know this because I am in touch with people from the family group that I am still part of.
For anyone out there who is struggling mentally and physically with a loved one engulfed in substance abuse then I would highly recommend Lisa, she is, in my opinion the best in her field by a long way. I had tried everything over a 10 year period and nothing worked, you are in a minefield of the unknown and the unpredictable and you need that professional advice to get you there
Lisa counselled me through the most horrendous times of my life with my son deep into addiction, her guidance and support was both firm and directive but delivered with true care and kindness. I trusted Lisa from day one, she has the unique presence with ability to reassure you and calm you down to a state where you can think rationally. She doesn’t tell you everything is going to be fine because that would be unrealistic, but she gives you is actions to put into play to help you and your loved one into a better place.
Lisa’s knowledge and experience is so vast that she speaks with authenticity, Lisa emphasises the importance of tough love, and the need to stop enabling your loved one and to take your hands off. That was so hard for me and without the encouragement from Lisa to keep trying I would still be in the same situation now or to put it frankly my son wouldn’t be here.
Today, through Lisa’s care and through the services in Liverpool my son is now 9 months clean, sober, writing music, going to the gym, he also has access to his baby daughter which was also mediated by Lisa as a family systems coach. My son has stayed in touch with Lisa, who he refers to as his friend.
Lisa saved my life and my son’s life and I will be forever indebtedness to her for that

I have been extremely fortunate to receive help and guidance from the Well MInd. At a time in my life when I was very unwell this organisation quite simply helped to save my life. I cannot find the words to write what impact Lisa at the Well Mind has had on my life and also my families lives. To find an organisation that truly cares about people and wants to see them flourish and believe in themselves is very rare. I would recommend this every single time. If you would like to speak to me contact Sar on 07471 894420, I am always happy to talk about my experience and share with others. More...

When I found this support, I felt so overwhelmed by a problem and there is no past experience to help, guide or influence my future path. With Lisa’s help I was able firstly look after myself, consider my options and boundaries in safety and with appropriate challenges. To be treated with respect, honesty from a place of integrity has enabled me to live my life again. I will be forever grateful and so are the family and friends who love me too. Thanks Lisa xxx More...

I am a new you member of this group. I the issues that had caused my wife and I so much trouble fear and stress have been continuous for several years during which time I'm I've asked for help in numerous organisations none of which offered any real help or advice. It was only after a recent incident that I reached out for help again. Fortunately I found Lisa although I am new to this group she gives me hope that's a solution may one day be found for our issues she is easy to speak to and it is both knowledgeable and understanding. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lisa to anyone who is is struggling the way we are. More...

I am relieved and grateful to be where I am now after years of harrowing experiences living with so much chaos and fear that comes with living with addiction. I am deeply grateful for Lisa's radical acceptance (she's lived through so much herself and is here to tell the tale and guide others. She's seen everything and so there's no need to hide anything!) Her kindness alongside not allowing anything to slip by unnoticed has facilitated a thorough self-reflective process that is changing my life. I am truly inhabiting tender new ways of being that I didn't dream I could be worthy of. I am astonished at how profoundly life-changing it is learning how to live in serenity with practical strategies to protect it when it is stress tested. I would certainly not be where I am now without the practical and emotional structures in place that Lisa has supported me with. She has helped me find ways through what felt then to be impossible life events. I spent years privately fire fighting immensely stressful life-threatening and complex situations that come with drug and alcohol addiction and drug gangs/dealers. Attending her weekly group and being supported and supporting other families in similar situations and doing 'the work' in one-one sessions have helped me find sustainable ways of sleeping at night and creating a life that offers me freedom and peace of mind. This is a one and precious life that I am now participating in with my ethical purpose and creative self-expression. Nothing is too big or small for Lisa's fine-tuned attention and kindness and I recommend seeing her if you are wanting to find your way through challenging times and find peace. More...

Lisa has helped me so much and continues to be an instrumental part of my life. When I met Lisa, I had completely lost myself, Lisa taught me to work on myself, stop being codependent and setting boundaries.
I am very grateful to Lisa, I am able to keep things in the day or moment and I'm working in progress.
Thank you Lisa for everything. You have helped me so much, very grateful

My experience of working with The Well Mind (Lisa) has been beneficial to my well mind.
It has enabled me to become better able to reflect and question my understanding and beliefs regarding my
anxieties.
Working with Lisa within a group setting, has provided me with the opportunity to consider my previously held thoughts, feelings and beliefs and to make positive changes to my wellbeing.
I feel Lisa is an excellent facilitator. She is a good listener, thoughtful and knowledgable in her field.
She is always able to provide good suggestions on how I may choose to address the difficulties I am experiencing.
I would not hesitate to recommend The Well Mind to anyone wishing to reduce, manage and find solutions to resolve issues which impact on their wellbeing.
Thank you Lisa

It is hard to describe how much Lisa has helped me in my recovery, it goes far beyond the practical help with addiction.
Lisa knows how to truly listen and she also speaks from the heart. I felt immediately at ease with her, from the first moment we spoke. Above all things, she really knows what she’s doing. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who is struggling, no matter the subject - I have signposted members of my family to her for this reason.
If you want to make real change with the support of someone who is kind, patient and knows what they’re doing, I would recommend Lisa every time.

Working with Well Mind has changed my life. When I first joined I was co-addicted and lost and didn’t know how to deal with my daughters addiction, more importantly, with me!
Now I am living a balanced and peaceful life and I’m equipped with tools and techniques to keep ME calibrated regardless of what life may throw at me.
I have found all at Well Mind professional at all times, understanding, patient and having compassion with me.
I would recommend Well Mind to anyone I know who is struggling with loved ones or life in general.

Lisa is an amazing help and she is there anytime you need her help, support for people in addiction and their families in desperate need and in crisis. Fully recommend!!!!
Rachel H
Working with Lisa has helped me in many ways. As a carer of someone with addiction and then handling complex grief and other emotions, Lisa helped me navigate this. She is calm and patient and takes the time needed to understand an issue. A way forward is never forced, instead she helps you develop the tools needed to make progress. Group sessions have been amazingly beneficial. I am truly grateful for the support, advice and practical wisdom which she offers. Thank you! More...
Sarah
Lisa at The Well Mind is like no other counsellor I’ve been to before. She made me think with a different perspective, set me ‘work’ to work though but also wasn't afraid to challenge me when needed. I found this amazingly helpful in my personal growth and without realising was just what I needed! Highly recommended 100/100!! More...
