About Lisa
Lisa Winn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 22 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem struggles, and relationship concerns. Her approach is practical and straightforward, aimed at making daily life feel more manageable.
Clients can expect conversation that is warm and nonjudgmental. She creates space for people to talk through what matters most. The goal is to build useful habits and clearer thinking rather than rely on jargon.
Background and approach
Lisa draws on several established methods to shape sessions, including cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance-based strategies. She uses those tools to help clients notice unhelpful patterns, try new behaviors, and stay committed to meaningful goals. Attachment-focused ideas inform how she looks at relationship patterns and communication problems.
Dialectical skills and client-centered listening add practical ways to manage strong emotions and improve self-understanding. She works with adults across a wide range of concerns, including issues related to adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image, commitment and control issues, and neurodivergence such as autism and Asperger syndrome.
Lisa accepts international clients and conducts sessions from Missouri using multiple online formats. Her style is collaborative and steady. People who want a clear plan, compassionate listening, and practical steps often find her approach helpful.
How Lisa’s Approaches Work Online
Lisa uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and day-to-day problem solving. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients focus on values and take committed action even when difficult feelings are present, which can be helpful for stress and motivation issues.Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at patterns in how people relate and communicate with others. That work helps when relationship habits, communication problems, or past attachment wounds show up in current life. Lisa combines these approaches in a collaborative way and will help clients decide which methods match their goals and preferences.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is good for in-depth work and visual cues, phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can fit short check-ins or when clients prefer writing. These formats make therapy more flexible for people with busy schedules, caregiving duties, or travel constraints.
