About Lisa
Lisa Lopez is a licensed clinical social worker who draws on existential ideas to help people facing pain and uncertainty. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. Lisa offers straightforward support and aims to help people notice what matters to them and take practical steps forward.
Lisa has four years as an LCSW in Arizona and about ten years of work experience in social work overall.
Background and approach
She has focused much of that time on trauma and addiction, including childhood trauma and substance-related concerns. That background gives her an understanding of how past harms can shape present choices and relationships. Her sessions are conversational and goal-oriented.
She helps people identify values, build coping skills, and change patterns that cause distress. Tools come from a mix of approaches including acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and a client-centered way of working that keeps the person’s perspective central. Clients can expect practical steps between sessions.
Lisa uses techniques to reduce panic, manage mood symptoms, and address compulsive behaviors tied to substances or coping strategies. She also supports people working through feelings of isolation, grief, shame, or major life changes like separation and midlife shifts. Her style is collaborative and calm.
She invites people to explore life purpose, strengthen self-regard, and move toward choices that reflect their values.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Existential Therapy helps people name what gives life meaning and face hard choices with clearer personal values. It can be useful for those questioning life purpose, coping with loss, or navigating major transitions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and patterns that keep people stuck. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy so the person feels understood and can find their own solutions; it supports building self-worth and confidence.Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try different techniques, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. Decisions about whether to emphasize values work, skills training, or mindful practices are made together during regular check-ins.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is good for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or texting can be used for brief check-ins, coping reminders, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while balancing life commitments.
