About Lisa
With 25 years of practice, she draws on several common therapy approaches to match what each person needs. Sessions often include client-centered listening, cognitive tools to shift unhelpful thinking, and skills for managing strong emotions. She also uses mindfulness and acceptance-based ideas to help people live by their values even while coping with pain.
Lisa works with people facing caregiver strain, cancer-related concerns, aging and geriatric issues, and the stress that comes with blended families. She also supports those dealing with depression, postpartum mood changes, trauma and abuse, relationship tensions, and isolation or loneliness. End-of-life and hospice counseling is listed among her focus areas when those needs arise.
Her approach is collaborative. She looks for strengths clients already have and helps build from them. Therapy sessions focus on real-life problems and practical tools rather than long academic explanations.
To get started, people complete the site’s matching process and schedule according to availability. Lisa practices in Mississippi and offers therapy in English for adults seeking help with the concerns above.

Therapeutic approaches and trying them online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It can be useful for grief, anxiety, and life transitions by shifting focus toward meaningful steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; it often addresses depression, negative thinking, and problem-solving. Mindfulness Therapy adds simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.Choosing the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try strategies, and adjust what’s used based on what helps. This collaborative process means approaches can be mixed to fit the person's needs and pace.
If you plan to try therapy online, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier and may reduce travel time. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that better suits a schedule or energy level. Talk with the therapist during the initial steps to pick session timing and a format that best fits everyday life and healing goals.
