About Lisa Taylor

Lisa Taylor is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with 10 years of experience supporting teens and adults through OCD, anxiety, depression, eating concerns, and major life transitions. LMHC stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor, a credential that indicates professional training and licensure in mental health counseling. She has worked in intensive outpatient programs and partial hospitalization programs as well as in private practice, bringing experience from structured treatment settings and individualized care.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward while remaining warm and human - she aims for therapy to feel like a real conversation rather than a lecture or a checklist. Lisa uses evidence-based methods such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and behavioral activation to help people break patterns that have felt impossible to change. She focuses on issues related to body image, eating and food-related struggles, self-esteem, social anxiety, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive behaviors.

Lisa particularly enjoys working with first-generation and BIPOC young adults who are navigating identity, family expectations, and mental health. Clients often say she helps them face difficult challenges while still feeling understood, and that therapy can include moments of genuine humor when it feels right. She recognizes that starting therapy is a brave step and strives to create a space where people feel supported, challenged, and encouraged to build the life they want, even when change feels daunting.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Lisa Taylor



Lisa draws on client-centered therapy to create a collaborative, empathetic space where the client's goals and pace guide the work - this approach is helpful for life transitions, identity concerns, and building self-compassion. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is commonly applied for anxiety, depression, OCD, and eating-related challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on building skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and effective communication, which can support people managing intense emotions and interpersonal stressors.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Lisa works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts plans over time as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend techniques to match what is most helpful for the individual.

Online sessions allow for flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from different locations while working toward meaningful change.
