About Lisa
Lisa Thorpe is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She is direct and empathetic in sessions and aims to make therapy feel approachable for someone trying it for the first time. She draws on a person-centered stance, meeting people where they are and listening first to understand their experience.
Lisa is trauma informed and keeps the pace guided by each person's needs.
Background and approach
Her work also addresses addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. With ten years of clinical experience, Lisa has worked across a broad range of concerns including mood disorders, impulsivity, feelings of abandonment or emptiness, and difficulty with forgiveness and self-love. That background informs how she frames practical steps and realistic goals with the people she sees.
Sessions focus on clear, manageable strategies and steady emotional support. People can expect help sorting through problems, building daily coping skills, and trying out small changes that add up over time. Lisa practices from New Jersey and offers services in English.
She accepts international clients and uses multiple online formats so people can connect in ways that fit their schedules and circumstances.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and steady support. One common approach she uses is person-centered work, which prioritizes listening, empathy, and tailoring the pace to what the person needs; this helps when anxiety or stress makes it hard to start. She is also trauma informed, which means she pays attention to how past hurts affect current behavior and adjusts the work so it feels safe and manageable.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lisa will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. The plan can change over time based on what helps most, and the therapist and client make those decisions together.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which give flexibility for different days and needs. Video lets people use visual cues and longer sessions, phone can work when bandwidth is low, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging is useful for ongoing, on-the-go communication. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and travel.
