About Lisa

Lisa Henthorn is a licensed counselor with seven years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and problems with self-esteem. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what feels hard and figure out next steps.

She uses practical tools to address mood and behavior. Sessions often focus on skills for managing strong emotions, improving daily routines, and solving immediate problems. Lisa blends short-term goal work with strategies for handling ongoing challenges like trauma or grief.

Her background includes a master’s degree completed in 2017 and years of work with mood disorders, PTSD, motivation struggles, and adjustment issues. That experience shows up as straightforward guidance and concrete exercises rather than abstract theory.

In sessions she listens for patterns that keep problems repeating. Then she offers changes people can try between meetings, such as small behavior experiments or simple communication practices. Progress is tracked in clear steps so clients can see what’s working.

Many clients find this approach useful when facing life transitions, relationship stress, or career frustrations. Lisa emphasizes collaboration - clients set the pace and choose which goals matter most. She works in English and practices in West Virginia.

How therapy methods translate to online care

CBT - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on how thoughts and behaviors interact. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and to build habits that improve mood and daily functioning. This approach is often used for depression, anxiety, and stress-related problems.

DBT - Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication. It teaches concrete skills for handling overwhelming feelings and improving relationships, which can help with impulsive behavior and intense mood swings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then recommend one or a mix of methods. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.

Session options are not specified here, so confirm the current formats before booking. One practical benefit of online sessions is that they can fit more easily into busy schedules, making it simpler to keep regular appointments. Online work also makes it straightforward to practice skills between meetings and to review exercises together during sessions. Licensed professionals often use these formats to keep therapy consistent with everyday life and responsibilities.
