About Lisa

Lisa Lee-Briggs is an LMFT practicing in California with over a decade of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate relationship strains, parenting challenges, and depression with a direct and respectful style. Lisa aims to create a calm space where clients can name problems and take practical steps forward.

Her background includes 13 years working with people facing family conflict, intimacy issues, addictions, grief, and trauma. She draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to match what a person needs in the moment. Lisa works collaboratively to design a plan that fits each person’s goals and situation.

In sessions she prioritizes clear communication and problem-solving. When working on couple or family communication she shifts the focus away from blame and toward mutual understanding. She also addresses individual concerns such as self-esteem, eating and body-image issues, impulsivity, and coping with life changes.

Lisa speaks English and French and brings experience supporting people dealing with mood issues like bipolar disorder, disruptive mood dysregulation, and depression. She also helps people with career questions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related struggles.

Her approach is practical and collaborative. She helps clients identify their own answers and offers techniques to try between sessions. Taking the first step can feel hard, and she aims to support people through that process.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Lisa draws from cognitive behavior techniques and Gestalt-inspired methods to help people change patterns and notice what matters. Cognitive behavior approaches break down thoughts and behaviors into small, testable steps to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety. Gestalt-influenced techniques focus on present-moment awareness and helping people name feelings so they can communicate more clearly.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lisa will talk with clients about goals and preferences, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative process helps people decide which tools fit their life and situation.

Confirm which session formats she currently offers before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose times that work around parenting, work, or other commitments. Licensed professionals adapt their methods to work well across remote sessions and in-person work, focusing on practical changes and clearer communication rather than on a single fixed method.
