About Lisa
Lisa McCann is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in New Hampshire. She holds LICSW and LCSW credentials and has six years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, parenting challenges, and trauma.
Lisa focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Her approach begins by listening to each person’s story and identifying strengths they already have. Sessions are collaborative and direct.
Background and approach
She helps people build skills to manage strong emotions, handle conflict, and improve self-esteem. Lisa uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and try different responses. She also draws on client-centered methods to shape sessions around what matters most to the person in front of her.
When skills for emotion regulation are needed, she may use ideas from dialectical behavior therapy. Many people come with issues tied to family life, adoption or foster care, attachment worries, or caregiving stress. Lisa also supports those facing relationship strain, substance concerns, impulsivity, or the challenge of major life changes.
She works with practical problems like money stress and isolation as well. Her style is supportive and goal-focused. She aims to make progress clear and measurable, while keeping sessions rooted in the person’s values and daily realities.

Therapeutic methods and online sessions that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. It helps people clarify goals and feel heard while working toward change. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches practical steps to shift unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and help choose methods that match a person’s goals, preferences, and daily realities. This decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made. Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be a good shorter option or helpful when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, skill practice, or ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These formats provide flexibility so people can try different ways of connecting and find what works best.Questions people ask about Lisa
