Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Lisa Johnson integrates Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Focused Therapy into her work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, helping clients explore their feelings and identify personal strengths to guide change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be effective for issues like anxiety and stress. Trauma-Focused Therapy provides targeted strategies to address the impact of traumatic experiences and supports processing of painful memories while building coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process, and Lisa collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions and pacing based on each person’s circumstances and works together with clients to adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit support into busy schedules or manage care from different locations. These options allow licensed professionals to provide consistent, accessible therapeutic support while accommodating different communication preferences and life demands.
