Lisa Haughey, LPC

Lisa Haughey is a licensed professional counselor with more than three decades of experience. She offers a warm, interactive approach and aims to help people build practical tools for change. Lisa treats clients with respect and sensitivity while being direct when clarity is needed.

Her work spans mental health and substance dependency, so she often supports people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, and major life transitions. She also helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, career stress, parenting challenges, and issues connected to ADHD and bipolar mood concerns. Aging and geriatric issues are included among her areas of focus.

Lisa blends several counseling methods to match each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take committed steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and build different coping habits. Client-centered and mindfulness approaches shape a respectful, listening-based atmosphere.

Her style is straightforward but compassionate. She avoids stigmatizing labels and tries to meet people where they are. She also acknowledges spiritual and faith paths and is comfortable supporting clients who bring those concerns into sessions.

Over a long career Lisa has worked in addiction treatment, mental health settings, and life coaching roles. That background includes helping people reenter life after criminal justice involvement and guiding those trying to make lasting behavioral change. She encourages people that seeking help is a courageous first step.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people get clear about what matters to them and take small, consistent steps toward those values. It is useful for stress, life changes, and motivation challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and practicing different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Client-Centered Therapy creates a listening, nonjudgmental space where the person’s goals lead the work.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Lisa will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

Practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling, fitting sessions into a workday, and reducing travel time. Online options can make shorter check-ins possible when a quick update is helpful, or they can make it simpler to maintain continuity while traveling or living abroad. Session formats are not detailed here, so confirm current options before booking to ensure they match your needs.
