About Lisa

Lisa May is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who brings a grounded, professional approach to therapeutic work. Originally from Kentucky, she operated a private practice before relocating to Tennessee, and she has spent many years supporting people through difficult life transitions. Her background in social work and long-term involvement in counseling inform a practical, compassionate style that values real-world progress and emotional growth.

She has particular experience addressing grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction, and she focuses on helping clients build resilience and healthier patterns in relationships and daily life. As an LPC - which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor and indicates formal training and state licensure to provide counseling services - she combines clinical knowledge with a down-to-earth manner to make therapy approachable and effective.

Lisa enjoys joining people on their journey toward healing and watches clients develop stronger coping skills and brighter futures. She takes each person’s concerns seriously and works collaboratively to support meaningful change over time.

Therapeutic Approaches and Virtual Care with Lisa May

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and experiences, with the therapist offering empathetic listening and support so clients can explore their feelings and find their own solutions; this approach can be helpful for building self-esteem and working through relationship or life-change concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and teaching practical skills to shift thoughts and behaviors, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related difficulties. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance, offering tools to reduce reactivity and manage symptoms of stress, grief, or trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Lisa works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as progress is made. The therapist-client partnership guides decisions about which strategies will be most useful.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into busy schedules and to access support from home or on the go. These flexible formats allow licensed professionals to provide consistent, goal-oriented care while accommodating different communication styles and practical constraints.
