About Lisa
Lisa Simpson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Indiana with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults and teens who struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, anger, and the everyday problems those issues cause. Her focus includes stress, relationship difficulties, parenting strains, grief, addiction concerns, and self-esteem problems.
She explains concerns plainly and talks through how symptoms affect daily life. That can mean addressing sleep or appetite changes, trouble concentrating, or a loss of interest in activities. Sessions look at how these patterns play out at work, in close relationships, and at home.
Lisa uses a mix of approaches to fit what each person needs. She draws on client-centered work to build a practical, respectful conversation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going. She also brings psychodynamic and Jungian ideas when deeper life themes and past experiences are useful to examine.
Motivational Interviewing is part of her toolbox for people who want help making changes, including around substance use or other behaviors. Therapy often combines short-term skills practice with longer conversations about roots of current struggles. That blend gives both immediate tools and a chance to understand long-term patterns.
She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, blended family challenges, codependency, and life transitions such as divorce or aging. Lisa accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps when someone needs clearer thinking about feelings and wants a respectful space to talk through hard moments.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replaces them with more effective alternatives. CBT is practical for anger, anxiety, depression, and the habits that keep those problems active.
Motivational Interviewing supports people who are thinking about change but feel stuck. It uses brief, goal-focused conversations to build the will to try different behaviors, which can help with addictions or commitment issues.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then shape sessions to match those needs. That collaborative planning makes it easier to try different techniques and notice what helps.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are used. Confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins on a lunch break, or avoid the need to be on camera for every session. Those practical benefits often help people maintain steady progress while balancing work and family obligations.
