About Lisa
Lisa Winn is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 22 years of experience. She focuses on common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, attention challenges, relationship worries, and low self-esteem. She aims to make first steps feel manageable for people who are overwhelmed or unsure where to begin.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can name what’s hard. Sessions center on honest conversation and practical steps that fit everyday life.
Background and approach
The work often includes checking patterns, noticing strong emotions, and trying small changes between meetings. Her approach draws on therapies that help people clarify values, shift unhelpful thinking, and strengthen emotional connection. That can mean learning new coping skills, practicing different responses, or tracking how habits affect mood.
Lisa explains methods in plain language so goals stay clear and doable. She has worked with many different life issues across two decades. That background helps when a concern feels layered or long standing.
Lisa uses experience to tailor an approach rather than follow a fixed formula. Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients. She supports people who want steady progress and realistic tools to manage anxiety, stress, and the challenges that affect daily life.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. It can be useful for anxiety and for people who feel stuck or avoidant. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical tools to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which often reduces anxiety and improves mood. Those skills can be practiced between sessions to build confidence.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they choose methods and adjust them over time so the plan fits real life and daily demands.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill work and emotion-focused moments. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat or text messaging work well for quick reflections, check-ins between sessions, and pacing support across a busy week.
