About Lisa
Lisa Henthorn is an LPCC and LCMHC with seven years of clinical experience based in West Virginia. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, depression, ADHD, grief, relationship and family difficulties, and a range of other life challenges. Lisa focuses on practical steps clients can use between sessions to feel more able to cope with everyday demands.
She draws on cognitive behavioral work to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavioral changes. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used to build emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings become intense. Mindfulness techniques support present-moment awareness, and solution-focused ideas help set short-term, achievable goals.
Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. Lisa talks through problems, practices new skills together, and helps clients test what works in day-to-day life. She also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, codependency, and caregiver stress when these come up.
Her background includes a Master’s degree from Lindsey Wilson College, completed in 2017, and clinical work across mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, and adjustment issues. Lisa explains approaches in plain language and aims to make sessions easy to follow.
People who prefer clear steps, coping strategies, and a mix of skill practice and practical planning may find this approach helpful. Before booking, confirm the current session options and how they fit the caller’s schedule.
