About Lisa
Lisa Patton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Alabama who focuses on clear, practical support for everyday struggles. She draws on seven years of experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, and anger. Lisa aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and straightforward.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what matters most. Sessions are conversational and focused on real-life problems.
Background and approach
Lisa listens first, then helps clients set goals they can actually use between appointments. Her approach blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques. That means she pays close attention to each person’s experience while also teaching tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Practical strategies are paired with steady support to handle upsetting thoughts, sleep problems, mood shifts, and relationship stress. Many people come to her for help with family-related strains, coping with loss, or recovery after trauma and abuse. She also supports those dealing with panic, obsessive thoughts, postpartum challenges, and compassion fatigue.
Lisa adapts sessions to what each person needs in the moment. Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that works for them.
Lisa aims to make ongoing therapy fit into busy lives.

How Lisa uses client-centered and CBT online
Lisa uses client-centered work to build trust and hear what matters most to each person. This approach focuses on listening, empathy, and letting clients lead conversations about their feelings and goals. It helps when someone needs a calm space to sort through grief, relationship stress, or feelings of isolation.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which teaches concrete skills to shift patterns of thinking and behavior. CBT techniques are useful for anxiety, panic, sleep problems, anger, and mood challenges because they break big problems into small, manageable steps.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Lisa discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods as work progresses. That way the plan stays relevant and feels doable for real life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is useful for in-depth conversations, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text help with quick check-ins or when writing feels easier, and any format can be mixed across treatment. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, childcare, or other commitments.
