More about Lisa

  • 26 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I have been a counselor for 26 years now and have worked with many clients and in different settings, including private practice, inpatient hospitalization, in home counseling, agency counselor, residential and lots of crisis settings. It has been a pleasure to help many people with so many different problems including depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, anxiety, family conflict and grief and loss issues and many others. I utilize many different approaches such as CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, trauma informed, narrative, client centered. I prefer to match my therapy style with what the client needs. I am a good listener and value the rapport and or relationship building as an essential part of the client and therapy process. I have a very gentle style with my interactions but will challenge you when needed. It is my goal to help you learn the coping skills, tools you need to help you to live a life worth living and be your best self! :)

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.

I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance I have received from my therapist Lisa. Her attentive listening and thoughtful responses have truly helped me navigate the complex journey from feeling trauma-bonded and fearful to being able to openly communicate and work through the delicate process of recovery. Lisa’s expertise and empathy have been instrumental in my healing journey & I feel empowered to face my challenges with a calmer and more resilient approach. Thank you Lisa for being a beacon of hope and healing in my life.

Lady Luck must be Lisa Rich in human form because I struck a jackpot finding her as my therapist! Only a few video sessions in and I’ve noticed a significant change on my anxieties! Major keywords : - Personable but professional. - Nonjudgmental and open minded. - Patient, empathetic, and understanding. - Genuinely kind and welcoming energy - Really listens, in return she comes up with great coping mechanisms best suited for you (based on the information you shared / opened up about yourself.) - Provides moral support / believes in you during a tough time. - Has the strategic comforting ability to keep you accountable with out coming off aggressive/abrasive. - Comforting tone of voice and great with wording in a nice manner, which makes it comfortable for you to open up even further. IMPORTANT TO MENTION : Spiritual people with clairvoyant / psychic abilities - who are afraid of being judged, further outcasted, or shut down out of disbelief. Look no further, Lisa is your go to girl! She will help you feel less alone when you share your spiritual encounters. FURTHER DETAILS FROM MY PERSONAL STORY : Previously before meeting Lisa, I was feeling slightly discouraged from a couple of therapist that neglected me from taking on too many clients or not really empathizing / attending my needs for proper healing. Once I selected Lisa as my therapist, she sent a warm welcoming message within a few hours - and with that quick response - it indicated how serious she is - about being present for her clients. Which gave me a great first impression about how supportive and passionate she is about helping others. When we had a chance to video chat, my great experiences with her are listed in the major keywords category above. Which ultimately created a 180 shift - from me feeling hopeless to hopeful, where I feel very encouraged to move more forward in my healing journey. Thank you Lisa, I appreciate you!
