About Lisa
Lisa Longo is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oregon with six years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, coping with life changes, and other common struggles listed in her profile. Sessions focus on practical, interactive support and clear feedback to address both current problems and patterns that go back further.
She uses a solution-focused style that favors concrete steps and measurable progress. That means conversations are aimed at identifying small changes that reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. Lisa also brings a practical, interactive stance that invites clients to try new strategies in between sessions and report back on what did or did not work.
Her background includes a degree from Seton Hall University in New Jersey and many years working across mental health and human services before her current counseling licensure. That experience shaped her toward straightforward, skills-based work rather than long, vague exploration. Clients can expect direct feedback and focused problem-solving alongside attention to past patterns that still cause trouble.
Lisa notes that therapy can be emotionally demanding as well as transformative. She aims to help people feel seen and heard while working on issues like anxiety, sleep problems, addictions, intimacy-related challenges, parenting stress, career questions, and grief related to aging or medical concerns. The practical emphasis is on achievable steps and clearer choices.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Lisa emphasizes evidence-based therapeutic techniques delivered in a clear, practical way. One common method is solution-focused work, which narrows attention to small, achievable changes and tracks progress from week to week. This approach helps when anxiety, sleep problems, or day-to-day stress feel overwhelming because it breaks larger problems into doable steps.Another frequently used method is skills-based coaching that teaches concrete coping tools. These can include strategies for managing worry, improving sleep, handling relationship stress, or reducing cravings related to addictions. The emphasis is on practicing skills between sessions and bringing back observations for adjustment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lisa will collaborate with clients to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in on what helps and adapts the plan as progress and priorities become clearer.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, since the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by saving travel time, enabling shorter check-ins, or letting people join from a quieter place when schedules are tight. Many people find that working with licensed professionals online helps them maintain consistency while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
