Approaches and Online Options for Collaborative Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting each person where they are, emphasizing empathy, active listening, and the client’s own goals. This approach helps people clarify values, build self-acceptance, and navigate personal decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns and replace them with more adaptive ways of thinking and behaving. CBT is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress management.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and reshaping emotional responses within relationships, supporting people who want to improve connections and resolve attachment-based concerns.

Finding the right method is a collaborative process. Lisa works with clients to choose or combine approaches that fit individual needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Lisa is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexible access to licensed professionals. These formats make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and other commitments, and they support continuity of care when life requires more adaptable options.
