About Lisa
She brings more than two decades of experience in clinical and school settings. Her approach blends several methods so sessions match what each person needs. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and a calm, straightforward way of working.
In sessions Lisa focuses on practical steps. She listens first, then helps identify patterns and small changes clients can try. She uses tools drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical behavior techniques, and mindfulness practices to build new coping habits.
People often come to her feeling stuck after a life change, overwhelmed by stress, or unsure how to handle strong emotions. Lisa aims to help them build skills for day-to-day life and to find clearer ways to move forward. She encourages gradual progress and practical strategies that fit each person’s routine.
To begin, she asks people to name their main concerns and goals. From there she tailors sessions and homework to match those goals. Lisa describes therapy as a collaborative process where changes happen one step at a time.
Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel understood and clarifies goals for change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns, useful for anxiety, depression, and work or relationship stress.
Finding the right approach is often part of the first few meetings. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape session structure and any between-session work.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a break. It can also let people use mindfulness or behavioral exercises in the environments where they live and work.
