About Lisa
Lisa Longo uses practical, interactive approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, and parenting concerns. She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor - LMHC and a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC. Lisa keeps sessions straightforward and focused so parents can find usable tools quickly.
Lisa brings six years of clinical experience in licensed counseling roles. She offers clear feedback and gentle challenge to help people notice patterns that get in the way.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to address what is happening now and connect it to what has kept the problem going. Her goal is to build a calm space where clients feel seen and heard. Lisa explains ideas in plain language and works collaboratively to set practical goals.
She helps people try small changes between sessions and checks what works. Common areas she supports include coping with life changes, depression, trauma and abuse, sleep difficulties, addictions, anger, low self esteem, and intimacy-related issues. She also focuses on family and parenting needs and related stressors.
Lisa holds licensure in Florida as an LMHC (MH22297) and in Oregon as an LPC (C8018). She works in English and offers several online session formats to fit busy schedules. To begin, a parent or individual can use the site Start Therapy flow and complete the short matching questionnaire.
Practical approaches and online sessions that fit parenting life
Lisa uses evidence-based techniques that focus on clear steps and real-life changes. One common approach is solution-focused work, which breaks down problems into manageable actions and helps people try small experiments between sessions to see what changes. Another is trauma-informed care, which pays attention to how past stressful events affect current reactions and helps build safety and coping skills for emotional triggers.Finding the right way to work together is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and how they prefer to communicate. That choice can evolve as progress is made and needs shift.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy parents and professionals. Sessions can be done by video call or phone when a longer conversation is needed, or by live chat and text-based messaging for brief check-ins and between-session support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, a child care schedule, or times when travel is difficult, while keeping the focus on steady progress and usable skills.
