Lissa Elliott St.Clair , LPC

Lissa Elliott St.Clair is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Pennsylvania who brings nine years of clinical experience to her work. She creates a calm, attentive space where people can slow down, be heard, and begin to process overwhelming emotions such as anxiety, depression, grief, or the turmoil of life transitions. Her practice supports those who feel stuck in negative patterns or like they are riding an emotional rollercoaster, helping them find practical ways to move forward and regain a sense of control.

Working from an empathetic, nonjudgmental stance, she takes a holistic view of wellbeing that considers emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual needs. She helps clients identify clearer choices, develop coping skills, and build greater self-understanding so they can make changes that feel sustainable and authentic. LPC stands for Licensed Professional Counselor, a credential for trained mental health professionals who provide counseling and psychotherapy.

Beginning therapy can feel vulnerable and challenging, and Lissa approaches that process with patience and respect. She partners with people seeking personal growth, acceptance, and empowerment, offering steady guidance as they work toward greater balance and resilience.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Lissa draws on client-centered therapy to place the client's experience at the center of the work, offering empathic listening and validation while supporting each person to set their own goals and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to help identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, making it a practical approach for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense mood swings and relationship struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; Lissa collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy feels relevant and usable.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to access care around work, family, and other commitments. For many people the range of communication options improves consistency and allows therapy to fit into everyday life while still working with licensed professionals and trained therapists.
