About Lisa

Lisa Eddy is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 13 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and everyday life changes. Parents and caregivers will find practical support for parenting and family concerns.

She also supports those coping with grief, trauma, intimacy issues, anger, low self-esteem, and career questions. Her approach is straightforward and warm. Sessions focus on what the client needs now and on steps that can be used between meetings.

Background and approach

She uses client-centered work to honor each person’s experience and solution-focused tools to set short-term goals. Mindfulness practices and trauma-focused techniques are available when helpful. Lisa brings specific experience with adoption and foster care issues, blended family challenges, caregiving stress, divorce and separation, and domestic violence.

She also works with people navigating autism and Asperger Syndrome, traumatic brain injury, and process addictions such as gambling or pornography. Her practice includes attention to post-traumatic stress and recovery from sexual assault and abuse. Clients can expect empathetic listening, practical coping strategies, and collaborative planning.

Lisa explains tools in plain language and tailors them to daily life. Her aim is to help people regain stability and find clearer direction. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

Lisa holds a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential, FL LMHC MH14526, and integrates approaches to match each person’s needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and helping people find their own direction; it is useful when someone needs a safe place to sort thoughts and choices. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and shift emotional patterns that affect relationships and closeness, which can be helpful for intimacy and family conflicts. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) targets traumatic memories and their emotional charge to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they pick methods and adjust them over time so the plan matches current needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions suit those on the go, and live chat or text messaging give shorter, more frequent check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family and caregiving schedules while keeping momentum between sessions.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.

EMDR

A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
