How Lisa works
She draws on tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, and dialectical behavior therapy to address difficult memories, anxiety, and overwhelming feelings.

She also supports those dealing with trauma and post-traumatic stress, grief, anger, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns.

Clients collaborate with her to build a step-by-step plan that fits their life and goals. Work in sessions includes identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying new coping strategies, and processing painful memories when appropriate. Lisa mixes structured skill work with space to tell your story.
The focus is on building skills that carry over into daily life. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. Lisa offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging for ongoing care.

Approaches and online care that focus on skill and healing
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes understanding each person's perspective and shaping sessions around their goals. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to organize thoughts and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used to process distressing memories by pairing recollection with guided bilateral stimulation and can help reduce the intensity of traumatic memories.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose which methods to try based on needs, goals, and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time so sessions stay focused on what is helpful in day-to-day life.
Online therapy offers flexibility across several formats: video calls for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family time, or other routines while still using evidence-informed techniques.
