Lisa Nicholson - Director / Therapist
Over the past two decades, I’ve supported people facing some of life’s toughest challenges and stigma. With 20 years experience across mental health, addiction, trauma, and family work, I also bring insight as someone who has lived through and worked alongside communities affected by HIV, Domestic violence, addiction and mental health issues. I’m a BACP-accredited integrative counsellor, hold membership with several other professional bodies including the Addiction Professionals network, BABCP,  NCBP and Creative counsellors. I’ve delivered training and consultancy for frontline staff, designed trauma-informed programmes for young people, families, different groups and led innovative projects in prisons, rehabs, and other communities. Whether I’m mentoring a young person, coaching a professional, or speaking to a room full of people, my aim is the same: to help others believe that change is possible and give them the tools to make it happen. At Link in Living, we combine real insight and lived experience with evidence-based practice.
