About Lisa
Lisa Connelly, LPC, helps people who are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, or life changes. She works with worries about parenting, sleep and eating problems, addiction concerns, and issues around intimacy and codependency. Her goal is to help people find practical ways to cope and move forward.
She brings 15 years of experience across many settings, including group homes, inpatient psychiatric care, chemical dependency treatment, outpatient clinics, and private practice. That background shapes a down-to-earth approach that values steady, realistic progress. Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that fit into everyday life.
Her style blends straightforward conversation with proven methods. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and take meaningful action. Attachment-based work and client-centered listening help clients make sense of close relationships and feel heard.
Lisa often uses skills from dialectical behavior therapy to help manage strong emotions and reduce impulsive reactions. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can try new ways of coping and repairing relationships when needed.
Clients can expect practical tools, thoughtful feedback, and collaborative goal setting. She emphasizes trust and steady pacing so people can build confidence and steady routines that support long-term change.
How her therapy approaches fit online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts while still moving toward the life they value; it focuses on choosing small, meaningful actions rather than trying to eliminate every unpleasant feeling. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people build more secure ways of relating to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy identifies unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to change them over time.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, struggles, and what feels useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress unfolds, so the work stays practical and relevant to daily life.
Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered.

It can also support steady practice of new skills between meetings and make it simpler to keep therapy going during life transitions.
