Background and approach

Mindfulness practices are introduced when helpful to calm the body and steady attention. For people coping with trauma or painful memories, she may use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to reduce intensity and improve daily coping. Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques are used when relationship patterns or connection issues are central concerns.

She aims to match methods to the problem rather than applying a single set of tools. Lisa has worked with a wide range of issues, including adoption and foster care matters, blended family tensions, caregiver stress, process addictions, sexual assault and abuse, and post-traumatic stress. She also supports those navigating divorce, midlife transitions, career shifts, and parenting pressures.

Sessions are offered in English and provided by a Florida LMHC. People can expect clear explanations of options, straightforward homework when useful, and collaborative planning to move toward better day-to-day functioning.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person's lead and building a trusting working relationship. In online sessions this looks like the therapist listening closely, reflecting what she hears, and helping clients find their own answers rather than imposing solutions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on patterns in close relationships and the emotions that drive them, helping people notice interaction cycles and try new ways of connecting that reduce conflict and increase closeness. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, helps reduce the intensity of distressing memories by pairing guided attention with memory processing; it can be useful for people recovering from trauma or assault.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Plans are adjusted over time based on what proves most helpful, with practical steps and simple skills to practice between sessions.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises that use visual cues. Phone sessions work well when lower bandwidth or fewer visual demands are needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer short check-ins, quick coping tips, or ongoing support between longer sessions. Together these options provide flexibility to fit therapy into busy days and different life situations.
