About Lisa
She begins with person-centered, solution-oriented steps to reduce stress and create small, practical goals. Sessions often include active and reflective listening, mirroring, reframing, and occasionally homework to build confidence and momentum. Those struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, or relationship and intimacy concerns will find an approach focused on everyday skills and steady progress.
Her background includes a Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of South Florida and long experience supporting adult survivors of abuse and people with bipolar disorder and PTSD. Lisa has also overseen a group home for sexually abused girls, giving her practical experience with complex trauma and caregiving stress.
She favors an adaptive, individual approach rather than a rigid protocol. Conversations are paced to each person, with encouragement, patience, and respect for personal beliefs. Therapy aims to help people gain tools to face life changes, improve communication, and handle intense emotions.
Clients who want a practical, empathetic therapist who focuses on skill-building and clearer daily functioning may find her approach useful. For questions about fit or next steps, readers are encouraged to follow the site’s booking process to learn more.
How her approaches translate to online work
Lisa uses client-centered therapy to place the person's experience at the center of sessions, focusing on listening, understanding, and helping people set their own goals. This approach helps clients feel heard and shapes the work around their priorities.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. CBT techniques are useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping after trauma.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what helps.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into busy days, which can make it simpler to keep regular appointments. Online work can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or sessions without being on camera if that helps someone focus. Confirm the available session options before booking so you know how sessions will be conducted.
