About Lisa
Lisa Hess is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, and life transitions. She brings a warm, honest, and down-to-earth presence to sessions. Her style is approachable and straightforward so parents can feel heard and understood quickly.
Lisa believes that hard times can lead to growth. She aims to create a space where people can name their fears and try new ways of responding.
Background and approach
Over 15 years of practice she has guided people through grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, sleep and eating struggles, career questions, and coping after trauma and abuse. Her work combines practical tools with reflective conversation. Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems stuck, and Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s pace and priorities.
She also draws on Narrative and Motivational Interviewing techniques to reframe stories and build motivation for change. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. Cost varies by location and is delivered through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted. To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to therapist availability. Lisa aims to work collaboratively so parents and individuals can find realistic approaches that fit their daily life.

How Lisa’s Approaches Translate to Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the person’s lead to uncover what matters most. This approach helps parents and individuals feel understood and choose goals that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and habits by teaching simple skills and short experiments to change behavior and mood. CBT is useful for anxiety, sleep and eating issues, and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lisa will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels doable. She tailors methods over time, mixing listening, skill practice, and story work to fit the person’s needs in a collaborative way.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work well for brief check-ins or when someone prefers writing. These options help people fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and everyday life.
