How Lisa’s approaches translate to online work

She commonly uses client-centered methods and cognitive-behavioral techniques. Client-centered work means the conversation follows what matters most to the person, with the therapist listening closely and shaping sessions around individual concerns. Cognitive-behavioral work focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and trying new behaviors to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety.

She also draws on motivational interviewing to support change when people feel stuck. That approach helps clarify personal reasons for change and builds small, achievable steps toward goals. Together these methods are practical and focused on measurable progress over time.

Finding the right fit is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try based on their goals, preferences, and life situation. That means plans can change as progress is made and new needs emerge.
