Lisa Williams, LPC

Lisa Williams is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 12 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and addiction-related concerns. She approaches work with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Lisa focuses on practical support and clear steps to help people move toward a more fulfilling life.

Her style centers on listening first and shaping treatment around each person’s needs. Conversations are guided by what the client brings into the room, then paired with tools that fit their situation. She draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions grounded in the client's goals.

Lisa also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thinking and change patterns that keep problems stuck. For emotional intensity and impulse issues she incorporates elements of dialectical behavior strategies to teach coping skills and distress tolerance.

Motivational interviewing is part of her approach when someone is unsure about change, helping clarify values and small next steps. Narrative techniques are used to help people reframe painful stories and find new meanings after loss or trauma.

She works with a wide range of concerns including relationship strain, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and issues like abandonment or codependency. Lisa aims to make each session practical, with attainable steps to try between meetings. If you are ready to take the first step, she supports clients through the process of planning and change.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experiences. It emphasizes listening, empathy, and shaping sessions around what matters most to the client, which helps people feel heard and understood even when working remotely.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often uses short exercises and between-session tasks that fit well into everyday life. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers concrete coping skills for managing strong emotions and impulsivity, which can be useful when stress, anger, or addiction are concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your situation and goals, then recommend methods to try together. Plans are revisited and adjusted based on what is working and what needs change.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the profile does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and let people practice skills in real-world settings between sessions. Licensed professionals can help tailor session length and homework to your routine so therapy supports daily life without overwhelming it.
