More about Lisa

  • 22 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW, LICSW

Hi! My name is Lisa Fargnoli, and I am a LCSW/LICSW with 24 years experience in the field. I have worked with most populations, and my specialties are working with people who have PTSD, dementia/Alzheimer's, anxiety, depression and family/relationship issues.

I am an authorized Oasis trainer, so mindfulness is an important part of my practice, as it soothes us mentally and physically. My approach is warm, honest, interactive and using humor when appropriate. I believe in you and I want to help you, believing in yourself! You are not alone in your struggles!

It takes courage to seek out changes for your life and I want to support you in your journey! "When you can't look on the bright side, I'll sit with you in the dark." author unknown.

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.
