About Lisa
Lisa Lee-Briggs is a California-licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing relationship and family concerns, parenting strains, depression, addictions, grief, and a wide range of related issues including social anxiety and phobia. She conducts sessions in English and French and practices from California.
She favors a straightforward, practical way of working. Conversations focus on clear, actionable steps people can use between sessions. She helps clients notice patterns in relationships and communication so they can make different choices in day-to-day life.
Lisa draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as cognitive behavior approaches and Gestalt methods. She blends methods to fit what each person needs and to address problems like intimacy difficulties, codependency, control issues, and body image concerns. That blending is meant to keep work focused and useful rather than theoretical.
Her background includes long experience helping people navigate divorce and separation, blended family challenges, parenting disputes, and family of origin issues. She also works with concerns such as trauma and abuse, eating and food-related problems, anger, impulsivity, and feelings of isolation or emptiness.
Sessions are organized to help people communicate more clearly and reduce repeated conflict. She also offers coaching-style support for career changes and coping with life transitions. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button.
Therapeutic techniques and online sessions
Lisa uses cognitive behavior approaches to help people recognize unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors; this is often useful for anxiety, depression, and unhelpful patterns in relationships. She also uses Gestalt-informed techniques that focus on present-moment awareness and direct dialogue to clarify how interactions and feelings show up in real time.Choosing which approach to use is part of the work. She discusses options with each person and tries techniques together to see what fits. That way the method is adjusted to client goals, current concerns, and what feels most helpful in session.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can offer similar therapeutic tools remotely, and Lisa will help identify the best format and approach to match practical schedules and clinical needs.
