About Lisa
Lisa Early is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 12 years of experience. She is licensed in South Carolina and North Carolina and works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, grief, LGBT matters, and life changes.
She focuses on clear, practical steps people can try between sessions. Conversations look at thoughts, behaviors, and routines that keep problems going. She uses tools to notice unhelpful patterns and to practice different responses in everyday moments.
Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. Lisa helps clients break big problems into small, manageable steps. She also integrates coaching-style questions when people want to set concrete goals or clarify life purpose.
Her work includes attention to abandonment, communication problems, forgiveness, isolation and loneliness, and social anxiety. She has experience with veteran and armed forces issues, multicultural concerns, and post-traumatic stress. The focus is on what a person can do next, not on lengthy labels or distant theory.
Lisa asks clients to be active participants in their care. She supports efforts to build self-esteem, improve communication, and manage depressive or anxious episodes. People who want practical, structured work that looks at thoughts and habits may find this approach useful.
How CBT-informed work translates to online sessions
CBT focuses on identifying specific unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. In practice that means tracking situations that trigger stress or anxiety, noting the thoughts that follow, and trying brief experiments to see if different responses help. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, social anxiety, and stress-related problems.Lisa also uses goal-focused coaching techniques to set clear, measurable steps. That looks like choosing one small skill to practice between sessions and reviewing what worked. The therapist and client decide together which strategies to try and adjust them based on progress and preferences.
The original biography did not list the therapist's online session formats. Confirm available session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce the effort of attending during a work break. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT worksheets, behavioral experiments, and skills practice to an online format so sessions remain practical and structured.
