How her approaches translate to online work
Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that fit remote sessions. CBT focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and practicing alternatives, which works well through guided exercises and between-session practice. ACT helps people clarify their values and take small actions toward them, a process that can be guided with worksheets and real-life goal-setting during sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. Together they review what helps and make adjustments so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Confirm current session options before booking to know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins when time is tight, and allow work on practical skills from wherever you are. Therapists and licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and communication methods to support steady progress in everyday life.
