Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can work
Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps. One common approach involves helping people identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts that feed anxiety and guilt. This helps when worry, panic, or shame get in the way of daily functioning.Another approach centers on pacing and stabilization after trauma. That includes grounding exercises, breathing practice for panic, and building routines that reduce overwhelm. These methods are meant to reduce intense reactions and increase a person’s ability to manage difficult memories or triggers.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. Lisa will work with each person to figure out what fits their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts pacing and techniques based on how someone responds in early sessions.
