She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 20 years of experience. Lisa presents a calm, respectful presence to help people talk through immediate concerns and plan clearer next steps.
Clients find practical skills in sessions. Lisa draws on cognitive behavioral methods to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She also brings mindfulness practices to teach simple ways to reduce racing thoughts and strong emotions.
Her work covers a wide range of concerns. This includes mood disorders, grief, parenting and family stress, relationship issues, ADHD, substance use, and coping with life transitions. She also addresses adoption and foster care topics, caregiver stress, perinatal mood issues, and multicultural matters.
Lisa has experience with people from many backgrounds and adapts care to personal values, including spiritual or religious beliefs when desired. She emphasizes straightforward communication and respect for each person’s story. Her approach is collaborative and goal-focused, so people leave sessions with clear ideas to practice between meetings.
Based in North Carolina, Lisa offers services in English and accepts international clients. She aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can address problems like burnout, anger, academic or workplace stress, and challenges tied to sexuality or identity.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the client's lead and helps set goals that feel relevant. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills. Online CBT can include practicing simple behavioral experiments and tracking patterns between sessions.
Finding the right approach usually happens together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are common during the first few meetings so the plan stays practical and useful.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, cut travel time, and allow brief check-ins when schedules are tight. Some formats work better for short skill practice while others suit longer conversations, so the therapist and client will choose what fits the person's routine and goals.
