Lisa is amazing. She is helping me so much after a long term relationship breakup. She is helping me see things that I didn't even realize. She is so supportive and even sends articles for me to read to further confirm her help. She is amazing and thorough. I look forward to reading her responses. And I truly feel like she understands me, even though email. She is fantastic. She has made me feel good about going this route and I feel confident with my decision to seek help. Thank you so much Lisa, words can't express my gratitude.

Whatever your reasons for seeking counseling, I assure you that no issue is too big or too small to put it out there on the table. Going over it again and again in your own head can leave you feeling isolated and stuck. Through interaction there can be movement.

In my psychotherapy practice in eastern Suffolk County, NY, I work with parents, teens, couples, families and the elderly. The goals are healing, clarity, self-empowerment, effectiveness in life, work and relationships, as well as a more authentic experience of the self, and a more heart-felt expression of self in the world. I help people understand and articulate their unique purpose. I approach clients from a strengths perspective - everything you need is already there; it's never, EVER, too late to gain the clarity you seek and the life you want.

Areas of expertise include teenage issues, parenting teens; marriage counseling, relationship and communication coaching (which can be done effectively with only one member of the relationship present); anxiety and depression; self-empowerment, self-esteem and identity expression; stress management and mindfulness; end of life and eldercare issues; family caregiver burnout; grief; issues around dementia; spirituality, finding the meaning of life.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work at SUNY Stony Brook in 1996 and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology from Fordham University in 1984. I received post-graduate training in Bowen's Family Systems Therapy.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
