About Lisa
Lisa Haughey is a licensed professional counselor with decades of experience helping people sort out stress, anxiety, addiction, and life transitions. She works in a warm, interactive way and focuses on practical tools people can use between sessions. Lisa is based in Georgia and brings 34 years in counseling to her work.
Her approach centers on mindfulness, acceptance, and practical problem solving. She combines Mindfulness Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive strategies to help people notice patterns, shift unhelpful thoughts, and take small steps toward their values. Motivational interviewing and client-centered techniques guide conversations when people feel stuck or uncertain.
Lisa has worked in addiction and mental health settings and has helped people facing depression, bipolar challenges, grief, and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with parenting stress, career decisions, intimacy issues, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She has experience with people who have had contact with the criminal justice system and the challenges of reentry.
Her style is direct but compassionate. She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats people with sensitivity and respect. Sessions mix listening, practical skill-building, and honest feedback to help clients develop new coping strategies and clearer direction.
Lisa values each person's spiritual path and is comfortable working with clients who bring faith or spirituality into therapy. She encourages clients to take the first step and offers steady support while they work toward change.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Lisa often uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions in the moment and learn simple practices to reduce reactivity. This can be useful for anxiety, stress, and managing cravings or urges.
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them while accepting uncomfortable feelings. That approach is helpful for people facing life transitions, depression, or chronic worry.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and how different strategies might fit your situation, then tailor sessions over time based on what works for you.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, allow shorter check-ins on a lunch break, or remove travel time. It also lets people continue with therapy when they relocate or travel internationally. Talk with the therapist about practical needs and scheduling to find a setup that fits your life.
These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
