Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Lisa draws from client-centered therapy to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where the client’s perspective guides the work. This approach helps people explore identity, build self-compassion, and find direction during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps partners and individuals recognize and shift emotional responses that maintain relationship distress, improving connection and communication.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lisa collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time so therapy stays relevant and effective.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage with a licensed professional - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and access consistent support from wherever the client is located within the therapist’s service area.
