About Lyssa
Lyssa Solomon Simpson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Georgia who centers her work on building motivation and practical change. She brings ten years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. Lyssa emphasizes each person's strengths and decisions as the foundation for progress.
She uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find internal reasons to change and stay engaged. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to make space for honest conversation, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. These approaches guide focused, goal-oriented sessions that aim to move people forward.
Lyssa has helped people facing LGBT-related questions and issues around sexuality. She also works with concerns tied to abandonment, adoption and foster care, family communication problems, mood disorders, impulsivity, phobias, and post-traumatic stress. Young adult issues, social anxiety, self-harm, and self-love are also within her practice focus.
Her style is collaborative and respectful. Sessions are grounded in what the person wants to change, not in one-size-fits-all solutions. Lyssa encourages small, manageable steps so progress feels doable.
She speaks English and accepts international clients. To begin, prospective clients use the site’s Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to her availability. The subscription model used for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How Lyssa’s approaches translate to online work
Lyssa often blends Motivational Interviewing with Client-Centered Therapy to help people clarify their goals and feel heard. Motivational Interviewing focuses on drawing out a person’s own reasons for change and building commitment. Client-Centered Therapy creates a supportive space where the person’s perspective guides the conversation.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns of thinking that make problems worse and to practice different responses. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and difficulties with anger or low self-esteem because it links thoughts, feelings, and actions in a clear way.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lyssa collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying one technique for a few sessions and adjusting what comes next based on how things go.

In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed.
