Lisa has been a great help to me if nothing else just pay sounding board for many difficult situations in my life. She has given me many suggestions to help me relate to my situation things that I would’ve never thought of that will open my eyes to some things that I just couldn’t see, working with her has given me a lot of relief that I don’t know that I would have gained if I hadn’t chosen this online program. I live far away over 1000 miles from my psychiatrist that I have seen for many years. The state that I live in now has very few in my opinion limited psychologist psychiatrist doctors of any kind and my psychiatrist suggested that I try this program. It’s great being able to reach out Via just messaging her if I have a question if I’m upset about something sessions, she checks on me at least two times a week if not more depending on my situation at the time so I’m grateful and appreciative of the program and my relationship that I have built with Lisa as a therapist. I’m very confident and comfortable discussing anything without feeling like someone is making judgment upon me and that’s very important to me and I’m sure others when seeking therapy for someone to just listen and not make judgment, but give suggestions in a way that is very Relevant within my concerns and frustrations . The program and Lisa are very valuable to me and have made my life easier to deal with under my circumstances.

Only three words. I love her! I have been to a few different counselors through the years. Some marital as well as some for my own issues. Lisa is really so far above the others in many ways. She listens, she absorbs all that you tell her. Even little things will be brought up in a different way and you know she really was listening to YOU and working on your issues, not her own or other clients’ issues. She suggests, but does not push different ways of looking at life and better ways of responding to certain known triggers. She does not talk down to you in any way. I would love to set my keurig on constant brew and have a long talk with her someday. Who knows, maybe I will if we ever have time at the same time.
