About Lisa
Lisa Henthorn is a licensed counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. She aims to make starting therapy feel straightforward and manageable. Her approach is down-to-earth and practical, and she speaks plainly about goals and next steps.
She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build new coping skills. Mindfulness practices and solution-focused techniques are woven in to keep sessions action-oriented.
Background and approach
Conversations are collaborative so clients leave with concrete steps to try between meetings. Lisa earned her Master’s degree from Lindsey Wilson College in 2017 and holds LPCC and LCMHC credentials. Over seven years she has worked with people dealing with ADHD, mood disorders, trauma, grief, and motivation challenges.
That experience shapes a flexible style that adjusts to each person’s needs. Sessions aim to be a place to talk frankly about relationship strain, career stress, addictions, body image, or parenting pressure. Lisa helps people sort priorities, practice new responses, and rebuild confidence.
Progress often starts with small, steady changes. She offers therapy from West Virginia and conducts sessions in English. People who want to begin are guided through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling process to find an approach that fits their life and goals.
Online approaches that focus on skills and change
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. DBT, or dialectical behavior therapy, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling relationship conflicts. It can help with mood swings, impulsive behavior, and intense reactions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals and daily life. Early sessions often try a few tools and then focus on what feels most useful, adjusting as progress unfolds.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good when visual connection helps the work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins, short coaching, or when scheduling needs more flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines and to keep work moving between sessions.
