    About Lisa

    Lisa Wing is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) based in Maine. She has been a licensed clinician for nine years and brings nearly a decade of practicing as an LCPC alongside more than 20 years working in mental health roles. She talks plainly and meets people where they are to help them move toward clearer goals.

    Her style is down-to-earth and often includes a bit of humor. She favors a straight-forward, no-nonsense approach while treating each person with compassion and respect. Lisa works together with people to build a treatment plan that reflects their priorities and life circumstances.

    Lisa blends several practical approaches in sessions. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors, Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work focused on the client’s experience, and Motivational Interviewing to support change when motivation feels stuck. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing when those tools fit the goals.

    She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar challenges, ADHD, grief, and post-traumatic stress. Other focuses include anger, self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, relationship and family issues, parenting, social anxiety and finding life purpose.

    Lisa asks clients to be active partners in therapy. Together they set practical steps and check progress along the way. Prospective clients can expect straightforward conversation and concrete strategies aimed at real-life change.

  2. How therapy approaches shape online care

    Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their own reasons for change and build motivation step by step. It uses gentle, conversational questions to move someone from uncertainty toward action and works well for goals like shifting habits or tackling avoidance.

    Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's experience and priorities. The therapist listens deeply and reflects what the client brings, which helps people feel heard and decide their own direction.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and tries practical experiments to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, social anxiety, and many everyday problems where changing reactions can reduce distress.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help figure out which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress or new concerns emerge. This is a collaborative process where the client's values guide decisions.

    If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and lets therapy fit into a busy week. It also allows for shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, which can make staying consistent feel more manageable. Ask about available formats when you schedule so sessions match your daily life.
