About Lisa

Her approach is practical and direct, aimed at helping clients manage strong emotions and regain control of daily life. Lisa focuses on clear goals and simple skills.
Background and approach
She uses methods that help people notice thoughts, practice new behaviors, and build safer relationship patterns. Sessions are conversational and often include exercises to try between meetings. Her background includes a mix of clinical settings that shaped her practice.
Lisa has worked in residential treatment, outpatient clinics, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, and independent practice. Those years gave her experience with trauma, mood disorders, and complex emotional problems. In session she pays attention to how attachment, coping habits, and behavior patterns affect current problems.
She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to shift unhelpful thinking and on acceptance-oriented strategies to reduce needless struggle with difficult feelings.

How her approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept up by them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can help when anger, anxiety, or avoidance get in the way of daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-world experiments to change behavior and mood. CBT is useful for symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood swings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and communication, which can be helpful for relationship struggles and intimacy issues.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That choice can shift as progress is made and new challenges appear.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people use visual cues when that helps, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low or screens aren’t convenient, and live chat or text messaging can suit short check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to try techniques in real time with professional guidance.
