About Lisa
She blends traditional talk therapy with creative and experiential elements. Nature, gardening, art, yoga, and play are woven into sessions when they fit the person’s needs and goals. These tools are used to make therapy more engaging and to help clients practice new ways of coping outside sessions.
Before becoming a counselor, Lisa spent 24 years in education. That experience shaped how she notices patterns and asks questions that uncover what’s causing ongoing stress. She uses that observation skill to help people identify areas of life that don’t match their core values and to set realistic, concrete goals.
Sessions aim to be practical and tailored. Lisa helps people try new skills, notice what changes, and adjust plans when needed. She supports work on things like career concerns, compassion fatigue, chronic pain or illness, and issues with isolation or control.
Her approach is collaborative and hands-on. People who prefer a mix of talking and doing - using creative activities or movement alongside conversation - may find this style helpful. The goal is steady, usable progress rather than quick fixes.

Blending talk and creative methods in online care
Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside creative, experiential tools to make progress practical and approachable. One common approach is using structured, evidence-based exercises that teach skills for managing stress and anxiety; these exercises focus on breathing, grounding, and stepwise behavior change to reduce panic and overwhelm. Another approach pairs talk-based reflection with hands-on activities like art or nature-based tasks to help people notice patterns, try new responses, and build confidence in day-to-day life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs and goals. This means trying methods, checking what helps, and adapting the plan together rather than assuming a single path up front.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins between obligations, and remove travel time. It also lets people practice skills in their usual routines and bring real-life challenges into session conversation for immediate problem-solving.
