About Lisa
Lisa Shifflett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Tennessee with 14 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Lisa emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every conversation.
Her work often centers on everyday struggles like low self-esteem, motivation, trouble sleeping, and difficulties with relationships. She also supports people facing grief, addiction concerns, parenting stress, and work-related strain. Lisa pays attention to how life changes and past hurts shape current choices and moods.
Sessions are adapted to each person. Lisa listens first, then partners with clients to build a clear, practical plan. That plan might include short-term steps, skills to manage strong feelings, and ways to shift unhelpful patterns.
She uses approaches that are straightforward and goal-oriented. Lisa blends client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral work, motivational interviewing, solution-focused techniques, and trauma-focused care. The mix depends on what a person needs and prefers.
People who come to Lisa often want concrete ways to feel steadier, sleep better, or improve everyday relationships. She works at a pace chosen by the client and offers steady support while people try new ways of coping and living.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online care
Client-Centered Therapy is about listening closely and following the person's lead. It helps people feel heard and build trust before making changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. It helps with anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and practical skills for daily life.
Motivational Interviewing emphasizes small steps and finding what a person really wants to change. It can be useful when someone struggles with motivation or making lasting changes like reducing addictive behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they pick strategies and adjust them as progress is made.
Online therapy can fit more easily into everyday life, letting people schedule sessions around work, childcare, or other commitments. Because the exact session formats are not listed here, confirm current options before booking. Practical benefits include easier scheduling, the ability to check in between appointments, and fewer travel needs, which can make sustaining therapy simpler.
