She aims to create practical plans clients can use between sessions to build resilience and move toward their goals.
How Lisa Uses Therapeutic Techniques Online
Lisa commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered therapy when working with people. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify patterns of thinking and behavior that keep stress or anxiety active and introduces practical exercises to test new responses. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and following the client’s priorities so goals come from the person’s own values and needs.She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods to help people find momentum and practical next steps. Motivational interviewing supports clearer motivation for change, while solution-focused work narrows in on small, achievable goals to build progress quickly. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process between the client and therapist.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options, try techniques, and adjust plans based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative way helps people see what fits best for their situation.
Please confirm the current session formats before booking, as this profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break, fewer travel logistics, or options that reduce the need for video. These practical benefits often help people keep momentum between sessions and apply strategies in everyday situations.
