She also supports those coping with depression, relationship and intimacy difficulties, addiction concerns, and attention-related struggles such as ADHD.

Lisa uses plain language and listens first, then helps clients set small, practical goals. People can expect a warm, nonjudgmental space where their experiences are respected.
Background and approach
Her background includes 16 years of clinical work serving a range of concerns. Lisa blends client-centered methods with focused techniques to address symptoms and patterns that get in the way of daily life. She draws on cognitive-behavioral tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and uses emotionally-focused strategies to improve connection and communication.
Mindfulness and motivational approaches are part of her toolkit too. Mindfulness helps people manage stress and stay grounded. Motivational interviewing can help when someone is unsure about change or wants support building long-term habits.
Lisa works one-on-one with adults and frames therapy as a collaborative process. She pays attention to each person's background, values, and goals when shaping treatment. Her aim is to help clients build skills they can use between sessions to feel more steady and capable.
Approach and online options for therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building trust. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them clarify values and goals; this approach can be good for people seeking acceptance and understanding. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple, practical exercises to change patterns that fuel anxiety, low mood, or attention difficulties.Choosing an approach is a shared decision. Lisa will work with each person to match methods to goals and daily life. If one approach isn’t helping, she will discuss adjustments and try different tools until the fit feels right.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit care into a busy life. Video calls let people meet face to face when schedules and travel are a challenge. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are available for brief touchpoints, check-ins between sessions, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options provide flexibility while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.
