About Lisa
Lisa Wing is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor practicing in Maine with nine years as a licensed clinician and over two decades in mental health roles. She works with people on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, depression, ADHD, and social anxiety and phobia, among other concerns. She also supports those dealing with grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting challenges, and questions about life purpose.
Before becoming licensed, she held many roles in mental health settings and has worked with young adults, adults, veterans, and people in the LGBT community. Her background includes training in EMDR, cognitive-behavioral methods, dialectical behavior strategies, motivational interviewing, and other brief therapies.
Her in-session style is straightforward and down-to-earth. She combines cognitive-behavioral work with EMDR and solution-focused ideas to target problems that matter now. Clients collaborate on a treatment plan and set practical goals during early sessions.
Sessions often include talking through thoughts and behaviors, practicing new skills, and pacing trauma work when appropriate. Humor and a no-nonsense tone are part of how she works with people who prefer a direct approach. She views the person seeking help as the expert on their life and uses that perspective to shape goals and steps forward.
Lisa practices in Maine and conducts work in English. Her practice addresses a broad range of life changes, including post-traumatic stress and questions about purpose, alongside mood and anxiety concerns.
Therapeutic approaches and how online work can fit
Lisa commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors through small experiments and skill practice. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and patterns that interfere with daily life. EMDR involves guided attention and processing of distressing memories to reduce intensity and the ongoing impact of trauma.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will review your concerns, goals, and how you prefer to work. Together you can try an approach for a few sessions and adjust based on what helps and what feels manageable.
The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, or avoid travel when weather or distance is an issue. It also makes it possible to continue skill practice between sessions and to bring real-life examples into conversations during meetings.
