About Lyssa
Lyssa Solomon Simpson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 10 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, LGBT-related concerns, anger, self-esteem struggles, and depression. Her practice also includes support for social anxiety and phobia among other focus areas.
Lyssa uses straightforward talk and practical methods in sessions. She treats clients as the expert on their own life and helps them notice the strengths they already have. Sessions focus on specific problems and on building small, useful skills that can help day to day.
She blends approaches like client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques. That mix helps people identify unhelpful thinking, practice different behaviors, and try manageable changes between meetings. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused work are used to set short-term goals and keep momentum moving forward.
Lyssa aims to make each session concrete and goal oriented. She often breaks goals into small steps so progress feels possible. Over time those small steps add up into clearer thinking and steadier responses to stressors.
Her background includes a decade of counseling practice in Georgia and work with issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, communication problems, mood disorders, phobias, post-traumatic stress, self-harm, sexuality, and young adult issues. She offers help in English and accepts international clients.
How therapy methods are used in online sessions
Lyssa integrates client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions to make therapy practical. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to the client so they can clarify priorities and feel understood. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors through small experiments between sessions, which can reduce anxious reactions over time.She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and keep progress moving. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Lyssa will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences rather than prescribing a single method from the start.
Confirm the specific online session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people practice new skills in real-life settings between meetings and bring those experiences back to talk through with the therapist.
