Approaches That Guide Online Care

Lisa uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where the client's goals and values guide the work. This approach helps people who want support in clarifying priorities, building self-understanding, and improving relationships.

She also integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, stress, and other concerns, and to teach practical skills for managing symptoms and making change. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) techniques are used when emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance are priorities, offering concrete tools for navigating intense feelings and relationship stressors.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Lisa collaborates with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and adjusts methods over time so therapy stays relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - making it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, to maintain continuity during life transitions, and to access licensed professionals from different locations. These options support ongoing work and make it simpler to practice skills between sessions.
