About Lisa

Lisa Gray is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 18 years of experience. She focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and challenges that come with life transitions.

Lisa helps people who are dealing with sexual addiction and pornography concerns, intimacy struggles, and feelings of meaninglessness. She also supports those coping with loss, suicidal thinking, and trauma related to molestation. Her work includes attention to ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and caregiver or compassion fatigue.

In sessions she uses practical, problem-focused approaches. That can mean looking at behaviors and thoughts that keep someone stuck and testing small changes. She also draws on narrative and Jungian ideas to make sense of recurring patterns and personal stories.

Clients can expect straightforward conversation about what is not working and what could change. Lisa aims to identify clear, manageable steps people can try between sessions. She also works on communication skills, boundaries, and rebuilding a sense of value after tough experiences.

Her background includes long experience with adults across many life stages and situations. Lisa takes a direct, steady approach with people facing grief, trauma, addiction, and complicated family dynamics. She invites people to start with one clear concern and see how practical work can shift daily life.

How her approaches translate to online work

Lisa often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and test the thoughts and behaviors that keep them stuck. CBT focuses on practical experiments and small behavior changes that can reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change habits.

She also uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and revise the stories they live by. That approach helps when recurring patterns or damaging self-narratives make it hard to move forward. Narrative work is useful for identity issues, shame, and recovery from trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will collaborate with each person to identify which methods make the most sense for their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in and adjusts plans as progress is made.

The biography did not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a work or school day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can use online work to maintain continuity across moves or busy schedules, while matching the approach to what a person hopes to change.
