Background and approach

She listens for patterns that get in the way of goals and works with each person to set small, achievable steps. This practical focus is meant to reduce overwhelm and build confidence one day at a time. Lissette uses several therapy approaches to match different needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports facing difficult feelings while moving toward valued goals. She also draws from client-centered and emotion-focused ideas to keep the work grounded in the client’s experience.

Her experience includes helping people manage life transitions, parenting stress, relationship and communication challenges, and trauma-related concerns. She also supports clients dealing with panic, ADHD-related struggles, and career or purpose questions. Sessions may include coaching-style tools to boost problem solving and daily routines.

People who reach out can expect a straightforward, compassionate style and practical strategies to try between sessions. The therapist encourages gradual progress and adapts tools to fit each person’s life and priorities.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while still moving toward what matters to them. It focuses on values and small actions so difficult emotions don’t block meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, panic, and mood challenges. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist follows the client’s lead and reflects their experience to build insight and self-trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and day-to-day life and then recommend approaches or combine techniques that fit. This collaborative process helps shape sessions so they stay relevant and useful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is good for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone works well when less bandwidth is available, chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy routines and different schedules.
