About Lisa

Lisa Longo is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and a licensed professional counselor in Oregon. She brings a practical, interactive style that focuses on solutions and real-life change. Her sessions aim to offer clear feedback and steady support for the concerns clients bring. With six years licensed experience and a longer history in mental health work, she helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. Lisa also addresses life transitions such as midlife changes, career shifts, parenting stress, and coping with loss or trauma. She works with issues like sleep problems, anger, intimacy concerns, and substance-related struggles. Her counseling blends attention to current problems with exploration of patterns from the past. That means talking through what is happening now, trying specific strategies, and also noticing recurring habits that keep causing pain. Sessions are practical and interactive rather than abstract or purely reflective. Clients can expect straightforward observations, gentle challenge, and help building tools to cope better between sessions. She aims to create a space where people feel seen and understood while learning steps to move forward. Lisa earned her degree from Seton Hall University in New Jersey and holds LMHC and LPC credentials. She describes therapy as emotionally demanding but often life changing, and she welcomes the chance to support people through healing and practical problem solving.

How evidence-based methods translate to online therapy

Lisa describes her work as practical and solution-focused, which means sessions center on clear steps and behavioral strategies to manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Solution-focused work looks at what is already working and builds small changes that add up, often through homework and short-term goals.

She also integrates elements that look at patterns from the past to understand recurring problems like attachment struggles, abandonment worries, or codependency. That work involves noticing how past experiences shape current reactions and trying new ways to respond in day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that match those needs. Adjustments are made along the way so the work fits the client's situation and pace.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer options for people who prefer not to be on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt practical tools and behavioral strategies to remote sessions so the focus stays on making steady, usable changes.
