Practical Approaches and Online Access to Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, skills-based approach Lisa commonly uses. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, test them against real-life evidence, and develop practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve day-to-day functioning. Coaching-style work complements her clinical tools by focusing on goals, accountability, and actionable steps to move toward meaningful change - useful for life transitions, purpose-seeking, and skill-building.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lisa works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailors techniques so therapy fits the individual rather than expecting the person to fit the method. This partnership allows adjustments over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, connect from different locations including international settings, and maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt tools and exercises for digital formats so people can continue skill practice between sessions and pursue consistent progress.
