About Lisa

Lisa Hulsizer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults, children, adolescents, and teens, and often supports young people through big life changes. Areas she addresses include anxiety, depression, family conflict, anger, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and school-related struggles.

She combines several practical methods to match each person’s needs. Sessions focus on concrete skills such as managing stress, improving communication, and developing healthier coping strategies. Lisa pays special attention to issues that come up in adolescence and young adulthood, like identity, school pressures, and shifting relationships.

Her approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered methods alongside Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy. That mix is used to notice patterns, try small behavioral changes, and set clear goals for progress. Conversations are direct and practical, with steps clients can use between sessions.

Lisa also helps people dealing with grief, addiction concerns, ADHD, parenting challenges, intimacy issues, body image, and career stress. She lists additional focus areas such as attachment and control issues, blended family dynamics, and caregiver strain. Those topics often connect to family conflict or life transitions that people bring into therapy.

Outside work she lives in central Florida with her fiance, teenage daughter, puppy, and six cats. She enjoys video games, movies - especially Marvel - and visiting nearby theme parks. She welcomes people who want straightforward, goal-focused work on the problems that matter to them.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with recurring anger, avoidance, or feeling overwhelmed by stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and tests practical changes. It is useful for anxiety, mood shifts, and learning new ways to respond when anger rises.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and supporting the person’s own goals. It helps people clarify what they want from relationships, work, and family life so they can make step-by-step changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That discussion can change over time as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques used in ACT and CBT to work well across remote sessions, focusing on practical tools clients can use between meetings.
