About Lisa
Lisa Williams brings 25 years of clinical experience to her work as a licensed counselor based in Colorado, holding LPCC and LPC credentials.
Background and approach
She trained at the University of Colorado at Denver, earning a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology, and has supported people across a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with life transitions, relationship and intimacy challenges, addictions, bipolar disorder, sleep difficulties, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.
Her approach adapts to each person’s needs, blending practical skill-building and reflective conversation. She commonly draws from cognitive behavioral methods to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, acceptance and commitment strategies to clarify values and increase psychological flexibility, and trauma-informed and narrative techniques to process difficult experiences.
Lisa emphasizes collaboration and aims to help clients understand themselves better while learning tools to manage stress and move toward meaningful change. Clients work with her to explore both small adjustments and larger life decisions, with a focus on realistic, stepwise progress.
With a calm and supportive manner, she prioritizes listening and tailoring interventions so therapy meets a person’s practical goals and personal values.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Lisa frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering concrete techniques for mood, anxiety, and stress-related concerns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and building willingness to tolerate difficult feelings while taking steps toward a meaningful life. Additionally, Client-Centered principles guide sessions by emphasizing empathy, validation, and collaboration to support self-understanding and growth.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may involve combining elements from different models over time so treatment stays relevant and responsive.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and communication style. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care across busy schedules and to use therapeutic tools in the context of daily life, while allowing licensed professionals to guide skills practice and provide ongoing support.
