Approaches that guide online work
Lisa often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered conversations. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and decisions that come up in midlife transitions.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people recognize repeating dynamics and try different ways of relating, which often improves connection and reduces reactive behavior.
Finding the right approach usually happens together. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences and try tools that feel helpful. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize skills work, emotional processing, or exploration of relationship patterns.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks or between commitments. It can also let someone choose a quieter setting or avoid needing to be on camera for certain sessions. Licensed professionals adapt methods so progress can continue even when meeting remotely.
