About Lisa

Lisa Johnson is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Montana with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common struggles like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, sleep problems, and trouble coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, ADHD challenges, parenting strain, relationship and family problems, and compassion fatigue.

She uses client-centered methods to listen first and then help people name what they want to change. Lisa draws on approaches that include attachment-focused work, cognitive behavioral tools, emotion-focused techniques, and mindfulness practices. In a session she listens, reflects what she hears, and offers simple steps to try between meetings.

Her background includes a decade of counseling experience in Montana with a range of mood and trauma-related concerns. That experience informs how she helps people manage panic attacks, seasonal mood shifts, self-harm thoughts, and impulsivity by combining practical skills and relationship-focused work.

Clients may bring issues such as abandonment, codependency, caregiving stress, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, or feelings of emptiness. Lisa also addresses problems linked to autism and Asperger Syndrome when adults seek support for related challenges.

She works in straightforward language and prefers clear goals and manageable steps. To begin, people complete an intake questionnaire and schedule a first session so goals and session structure can be discussed.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationship patterns shape feelings and reactions. Online sessions can use this approach to map relationship patterns and practice different responses to closeness and conflict. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. In remote sessions CBT can include tracking moods, testing unhelpful thoughts, and trying new behaviors between appointments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods to use based on needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying a technique, checking how it feels, and adjusting the plan together if something is not helpful.

Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions often make it easier to fit therapy around study, work, and travel, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people use written tools, screen-sharing for worksheets, and audio-only options if video is not convenient. These practical benefits can help therapy fit into everyday life without changing the therapeutic aims.
