About Lisa Simpson

Lisa Simpson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a focus on helping teens and adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, and the aftermath of trauma. She works with people whose emotional challenges spill into daily life - affecting relationships, work performance, home responsibilities, and the ability to enjoy activities that once brought satisfaction. Her practice recognizes common signs such as difficulties trusting others, disruptions in sleep or eating, trouble concentrating, and a loss of interest in formerly enjoyable pursuits.

Drawing on a compassionate, goal-focused approach, Lisa supports clients through practical strategies and deeper exploration of underlying patterns that contribute to distress. She attends to the whole context of a person's life, including family dynamics, parenting concerns, grief, and issues related to addiction or major life transitions. Pathways to Healing, LLC is presented as one possible resource for navigating these barriers and moving toward a more balanced, fulfilling life.

With 12 years of clinical experience, Lisa combines clinical knowledge and lived sensitivity to help clients identify strengths, build coping skills, and pursue meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Lisa Simpson uses a mix of client-centered and cognitive behavioral approaches alongside psychodynamic ideas to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, helping people feel heard while identifying personal strengths and goals - it is often helpful for building self-esteem, navigating life changes, and strengthening relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and improve daily functioning. Psychodynamic Therapy explores deeper patterns and past influences that shape current feelings and relationship dynamics, which can be useful for addressing trauma, family of origin issues, and recurring interpersonal difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Lisa collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules, manage geographic limits, and maintain continuity of support when life is unpredictable.
