Hello! I am licensed in Wisconsin with 9 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, & parenting issues.
My approach is warm, interactive & with a sense of humor thrown in. I do my best to meet my clients where they are at in their journey. My approach is eclectic as I know everyone experiences life in different ways. I use CBT, DBT, solution-focused therapy, & mindfulness as my main modalities of therapy.
I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage! I am proud of you for getting started on your therapeutic journey and look forward to working with you!

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 a good listener, and very approachable. Easy to talk to. She has good insights and support, and offers tangible ways to work on things.
Lisa has been a great fit for me and my individual needs. I appreciate that she can empathize with some of what I have going on as a fellow mom. She also points out my successes/wins, which I need too.
Lisa is awesome! I have been so happy with how easy it is to open up and share with her ❤️
Lisa is wonderful and caring.
Lisa is so great. I really wanted a therapist who wouldn't just agree with and validate everything I said, and I am so happy that I can have genuine conversations with Lisa where she will share her viewpoints and productively help me move forward. I feel like she is so honest, and it's easy to talk to her, and I really appreciate all of the ways she has helped me progress and continues to help me progress.

Lisa is a great listener and will relate back to her own experiences.
This is my first time trying counseling and Lisa is amazing. She listens and doesn’t judge, I feel like I can talk to her about anything. She makes me feel incredibly comfortable.
Lisa is a confidant and a healer. ♥️
Lisa has really helped me through my strong emotions and is a great listener. I have discovered much about much these last few months talking to her
Lisa is a wonderful therapist and a great listener. She's very friendly and personable, making her an easy person to speak with. I highly recommend her!
Lisa has been great. Her flexible schedule has made it easy to fit therapy into my hectic schedule. She listens and offers great feedback. I’ve really enjoyed working with Lisa.
In my experience with Lisa, I feel she did a great job of listening and helping me through my issues. I would recommend her to others as a resource to consider.
I recently started with BetterHelp and Lisa. Lisa has been wonderful and even though this is all very new, I feel as though I have made bounds of improvement and look forward to continuing to work with Lisa and working towards the best version of myself!
Lisa is a great listener and has great input about my thoughts and problems. I look forward to talking to her, and value her thoughts very much
Lisa is a great therapist and have had a great experience with her.
Lisa has consistently been there to listen intently, offer encouraging and positive-minded support, and humanize what can otherwise be very isolating. 10 out of 10 would recommend Lisa to anyone who wants to grow and improve their lives!
Lisa is a very nice and caring person. She truly listens to me on what I all have to say and she gives me advice and some skills which I love and that is really helping me. What I really like not only about Lisa is BetterHelp in general when your therapist will check in on you weekly and see how you're doing. With only seeing Lisa for a couple of weeks I truly am blessed to have her, my life is feeling better just having her in my corner! She doesn't feel like a therapist, she is so easy to talk to, she is like a friend! I would recommend anyone to Betterhelp or Lisa!!
Lisa is warm, friendly, and a very good listener. She takes what she hears and mirrors back but also adds questions, insights, and ideas for me to take into my daily life to make changes that help me.
