About Lisa
Lisa Hulsizer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults, children, adolescents, and teens and often supports teenagers and young adults through change and growth.
She helps people manage anxiety, depression, anger, and stress. Lisa also addresses school-related problems, relationships, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, self-esteem, family conflict, and life transitions. She lists ADHD, addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating concerns, parenting, career questions, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue among her focus areas.
Her approach blends several practical methods. Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), client-centered techniques, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies depending on the situation.
Sessions emphasize clear goals and step-by-step work. Lisa aims to help clients identify specific patterns, try different responses, and build small skills that fit day-to-day life. She prioritizes direct, understandable tools more than labels or jargon.
Outside of clinical work she lives in central Florida with her fiance, a teenage daughter, a puppy, and six cats. She enjoys video games, movies - especially Marvel - and visiting nearby theme parks when she has free time.
How CBT and ACT translate to online sessions
Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors in real life. CBT sessions often include homework, short skill practices, and clear goals to change patterns that cause stress or anxiety.She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) when appropriate, which focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and moving toward valued actions rather than getting stuck in avoidance. Client-centered techniques are used to keep sessions focused on what the client wants to work on, and motivational interviewing helps when change feels uncertain.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lisa and the client decide together which methods make sense based on goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs evolve.
