About Lisa
She uses short-term, goal-oriented conversation alongside deeper work when needed. Sessions include concrete strategies for day-to-day stress and longer discussion of patterns that repeat over time. Lisa draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and relationship and intimacy-related issues.
Parents and people facing major life changes will find focus on coping skills, communication, and behavior changes. She also supports those dealing with addictions, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem challenges, career decisions, and caregiving strain. Additional areas of focus include abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, and issues related to adoption and foster care.
With six years of formal clinical experience as an LMHC/LPC and more than two decades in mental health and human services, she blends practical problem solving with compassionate listening. The aim is to build skills that fit everyday life and to make progress you can notice.
To begin, she asks people to identify goals and looks for small, manageable steps toward them. Her style balances direct feedback with a steady, supportive presence during difficult topics.
Evidence-based approaches and working online
Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical solutions and relational patterns. One approach emphasizes short-term, goal-oriented work to teach coping skills and behavioral changes that help with stress, anxiety, sleep problems, and daily functioning. Another approach involves examining attachment and relationship patterns to improve communication, intimacy-related concerns, and emotional responses linked to past trauma.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals, try interventions that fit your needs, and adjust methods based on what helps you make progress. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to emphasize as therapy continues.
If you are considering online work, confirm the session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and support regular check-ins between appointments. It can also allow shorter calls when time is limited or audio-only check-ins when video is not convenient. Ask about the current session formats when you start the matching questionnaire so you can plan what will work best for your routine.
