About Lisa

Lisa Fox is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 33 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or worn down by life’s challenges. She speaks plainly and aims to make the first steps feel manageable so clients can begin to move forward.

She begins counseling with person-centered and solution-focused strategies. That means sessions center on the client’s goals and practical steps to reduce stress and build hope. Lisa uses active and reflective listening, mirroring, reframing, and occasional homework to support change.

Trauma and abuse response, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar concerns are areas where she has substantial experience. She has also worked with adult survivors of abuse and previously oversaw a group home for girls who experienced sexual abuse. Her background includes a Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of South Florida and long practice in clinical settings.

Her style is not highly formal or rigid. She spends time understanding each person’s history and perceptions before shaping a plan. Sessions emphasize encouragement, self-understanding, and skill-building to handle future problems with more confidence.

Lisa respects clients’ personal beliefs and will align work with those values, though she does not provide religious counseling. She welcomes a collaborative approach and aims to help people regain a sense of control and forward motion.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Lisa integrates Trauma-Focused Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy into straightforward, practical sessions. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on helping people process past harm and reduce its daily impact, using tailored strategies to build coping and safety. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience, letting the client set goals while the therapist offers empathy, reflection, and support.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and teach skills for changing behavior and mood. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress, and often includes small exercises and practical tools you can try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences, and together they’ll try methods that fit. That may mean combining elements from different approaches and adjusting work as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel, offering shorter check-ins when needed, and making it easier to schedule around work or caregiving. Many people find that consistent, regular sessions delivered remotely support steady progress when paired with practical tools and clear goals.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing trauma-focused therapy does not mean a therapist holds a specific certification such as TF-CBT, EMDR or CPT.
