Life situations and transitions can be challenging at times. My goal as a therapist is to offer a confidential and healthy environment for us to explore your concerns together. I strive to provide quality and compassionate care, meeting you where you are at, and helping you experience insight, growth, and healing. My approach to therapy is very relational. I want to know who you are and what you want from life. My hope is to guide you on the path that leads towards the full life you deserve.
I specialize in eating disorders, anxiety, depression, trauma, oppositional behaviors, grief and loss, body image concerns as well as relationship issues. I have specialized training and experience with eating disorders and follow the most current evidenced based methods for symptom management. I have completed an intensive training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy for trauma. I also integrate Christian beliefs with client who request this approach.
Once we begin the journey together, we can decide the direction towards healing.

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.

Lisa is the best counselor I have ever met with or encountered. She understands when to talk and when to listen and gives great advice and feedback.
Lisa has been a great support to me and I value her input and I appreciate her Biblical counseling. It is so wonderful to know that she’s praying for me and my family.
Lisa has been an absolute blessing. No matter what, she's always there. She's the "friend" I can message at any point and know that I'm not bothering her. She always has great insight and suggestions. This has been the best decision!
Lisa’s listens and offers feedback with great gentleness, respect and wisdom!
Lisa Stevenson-Allen has been of great help to me. I suffer from chronic pain and depression and she seems to understand the issues I am going through and have advice that is helpful and has made a difference in my life. She is quick to respond and if I mark a request as urgent she responds very quickly to help with a crisis. It has been great to know she is there every day for support.
Lisa provides great support and checks in often.
I would highly recommend Lisa to any associates. In fact, I already have, as well as BetterHelp as a whole. Lisa has a unique ability to identify areas to focus on and she's been spot-on through our experience together. She communicates in an empathic manner and really makes one think. She's been a pleasure to work with.
I'm so glad better help is an option- going to on site therapy just isnt an option as a stay at home mom to 5!
Lisa has given lots of helpful advice. She is good at making connections between the different pieces of my life (past and present) and patterns of behavior. I appreciate her ability to connect Christian faith with counseling since I am also a person of faith.
Great counselor! Has new and innovative ideas that I wasn't exposed to before. Very supportive.
Lisa was very kind and understanding. She responded very quickly and was able to give relevant feedback that I found that I could use almost right away. I would definitely recommend her!
Lisa has been very understanding and helpful.
Lisa is an excellent counselor and very knowledgeable in her field. What I really liked when I first started with her on this app is that she addressed my concerns right away. I feel I've been able to progress faster because we talk about the things that are bothering me in the present time. I also feel that this provider shows care and understanding while conversing with her -which provides an extra support. Lisa has been able to help me in a variety of different areas and she is well versed in different therapy types and treatments. I feel comfortable and open talking to Lisa about my concerns and I recommend her. She is a talented counselor with an abundance of experience to really fulfill my needs.
Lisa was very compassionate and caring to me. She took time to understand my feelings. Thank a lot!
For me, money well spent. Very good investment!
I appreciate the time she takes. She is a consummate professional.
