Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Lisa is so genuine and enthusiastic about her people. If you’re looking for a therapist that can help with eating disorders, she is the one! I’ve never felt like I can be so honest with a therapist…she meets you where you’re at and is realistic. I could say so much more but it would take so long. Schedule a session with Lisa!!

Lisa is awesome. I’ve never been able to open up to a therapist before. She is kind, makes talking comfortable, she is non-judgmental and it’s as if I have known her for years. I would highly recommend Lisa for anyone, any age with any issue.

Lisa relates to my problems on a personal level and is extremely easy to talk to.

Lisa's great! She's got a really broad base of knowledge and is also extremely heart-felt and sensitive.
Lisa has devoted so much specific time and energy to me and my needs. I have a weird situation and she has been so helpful in identifying exactly what types of solutions would be most effective for me. If you have anxiety and that is your primary concern, I highly recommend her!
