Background and approach
Lisa emphasizes the client as the expert on their life and works collaboratively to set goals. Lisa blends methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and eye movement approaches with solution-focused work. That mix is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns, practice new skills, and process difficult memories when appropriate.
She also draws on motivational interviewing to help people find momentum for change. People come to Lisa for a range of issues, including trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar challenges, social anxiety and phobia, and life transitions. She helps clients build coping tools, manage intense feelings like anger, and clarify life purpose and values.
Sessions typically begin with a shared plan. Lisa helps clients map small steps forward and checks in on progress. Her approach is straightforward and respectful, focused on practical strategies and real-world improvements.
Prior roles in community and clinical settings inform her work today. She practices in Maine and conducts therapy in English. The emphasis is on collaboration, skill building, and steady progress toward the client’s goals.
How therapeutic approaches fit online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, supportive relationship where the client guides the work; it helps people gain clarity about their goals and builds confidence in making changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle daily stressors. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) involves structured processing of difficult memories and can reduce the intensity of trauma-related distress when used as part of a careful treatment plan.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist starts by listening to a client's history, concerns, and preferences, then suggests methods that match those needs. Goals are reviewed and adjusted together so the plan stays practical and relevant as work progresses.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients send short updates, try exercises between sessions, or check in when schedules are tight. These options make regular care easier to fit into busy lives while keeping the focus on steady progress and usable tools.
