About Lisa
Lisa Hutchinson is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) and CSW with six years of practice. She provides counseling in Utah and works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, and caregiver strain. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
She uses straightforward, goal-focused conversations. Lisa helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns, try new responses, and track small changes. Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused techniques to keep sessions practical and action oriented.
Lisa has experience supporting people through fertility and pregnancy-related stress and with issues tied to women’s health. She has also worked with people coping with chronic pain and substance use concerns earlier in her career. That background informs how she approaches complicated or overlapping problems.
Her style is interactive and focused on concrete steps such as setting small goals, practicing new skills between sessions, and using short-term strategies to reduce distress. Motivational Interviewing is part of how she helps people clarify their reasons for change and build commitment.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session. Lisa works with clients to decide which strategies fit their needs, then adjusts pace and focus as progress is made.
How CBT and Related Approaches Work Online
Lisa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; CBT often involves specific homework exercises, thought records, and step-by-step behavior experiments that target anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy is used to keep conversations focused on the client's experience and priorities, allowing the person to lead discussion about what matters most. Motivational Interviewing is used when readiness for change varies; it helps clarify personal reasons for change and build commitment in short, practical steps.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lisa will work with each person to identify goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust methods based on what helps. The therapist and client review progress and change plans as needed rather than sticking to a fixed method.
The practical benefit of online work is fitting sessions into everyday life. Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are supported. Online sessions can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, or choose quieter surroundings. They also allow work on behavioral experiments and homework between meetings, making therapy tools usable during normal routines.
