Lisa Griffin created Avon Counselling to provide therapeutic support to anyone needing professional assistance and guidance with resolving personal problems. She is committed to helping people to talk about their issues, think about their choices and behaviour, and make positive changes to move forward. Her approach to providing therapy is innovative and unique, and certainly not ‘text-book’ counselling.

​​

The aim is to fully engage with her clients and provide the necessary level of service to bring about a successful outcome for them. Lisa prides herself on offering a friendly but high standard of personal service which is tailor-made to the individual. Lisa is a qualified counsellor who is dedicated in providing a safe space in which you can explore your thoughts and feelings, in confidence and without any judgement. Lisa is also an Alcohol Coach-Therapist with a wealth of knowledge in alcohol support services and is passionate about helping people to break free from the confines of alcohol dependency.

​

Lisa is championing our Walk and Talk service, that provides a little gentle exercise and re-connection with nature, whilst providing a friendly, non-judgemental and confidential counselling service. 

​​​

Lisa is also currently training in Clinical Supervision, and is already working with fellow counsellors in collaborative way, to ensure client safety, ethical practice, to encourage their professional development and to support their wellbeing.
