About Lisa
Lisa Johnson is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with ten years of experience helping people through hard seasons. She focuses on emotional connection, practical coping strategies, and calm conversations that make problems feel more manageable. Her approach centers on listening first and building a plan that fits each person's life and goals.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people better understand and respond to strong feelings. That can be useful for relationship strain, grief, abandonment wounds, and attachment concerns.
Background and approach
Lisa also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns that repeat across relationships and to find new ways of relating. Practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness help with symptoms like anxiety, panic, sleep troubles, and low mood. Sessions often include simple exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and to learn steadying habits for day-to-day life.
Motivational interviewing informs how she supports people making changes, including parenting shifts or coping with caregiver stress. Lisa works with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and family problems. She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, codependency, and the fallout of divorce or separation.
Her style is warm, direct, and centered on what a person wants to change. Clients can expect a collaborative process that balances emotional insight with clear next steps. Lisa invites questions, pacing the work to match each person's needs and timing.

Online support
Working with emotions online and choosing an approach
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice, name, and work with strong feelings so they can change recurring interaction patterns and feel more connected with others. It can be helpful for grief, attachment wounds, abandonment, and relationship distress.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current reactions and relationships. It focuses on identifying patterns of safety and threat in relationships and developing new, steadier ways of relating that reduce anxiety and emptiness.
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist follows the client’s pace, offering reflection and support while clients decide what changes to make and when.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will talk with each person about their goals, history, and preferences, and will shape sessions together. That collaboration helps decide whether emotional work, attachment focus, cognitive strategies, or mindfulness fits best.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible options. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text allow shorter check-ins, written reflection, and ongoing notes between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into school, work, or caregiving routines.
