About Lisa
Lisa Wyatt is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, family issues, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, anger, self-esteem, career concerns and related challenges.
She hears clients who feel confused, torn up, or worn down by life circumstances. She helps people notice their natural emotional responses and then focus on what happens next. The work is practical: get a clearer view of a problem, try manageable steps, and adjust what doesn’t fit your life.
Her main approach is client-centered work, which means the client sets the tone and pace of sessions. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns, and cognitive-behavioral techniques to connect thoughts and actions. Mindfulness and motivational strategies may be used to build steadiness and commitment to change.
Lisa frequently addresses issues around intimacy, parenting, blended families, codependency, control and communication problems, abandonment and family of origin strains. She also supports people navigating BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture concerns, chronic illness or pain, and compassion fatigue among helping professionals.
Sessions focus on concrete steps and realistic solutions that fit the client’s life. She offers a neutral perspective while helping people build on what already works for them. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How these approaches work for online sessions
Lisa combines client-centered work, attachment-based ideas, and cognitive-behavioral techniques in online sessions. Client-centered work means the client guides the pace and topics, so sessions focus on what matters most to you. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and helps people notice and shift those patterns. Cognitive-behavioral techniques look at how thoughts and behaviors connect and teach practical steps to change unhelpful cycles.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Lisa will collaborate with each person to identify goals, test what helps, and adjust methods over time. The aim is a shared plan that fits your needs and preferences rather than a fixed program.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or avoid being on camera when you prefer audio only. Many people find these practical options help them maintain consistency while working on anger, relationships, stress, and other concerns.
