Lisa Bryan , LPC

Lisa Bryan is a Georgia-licensed LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 24 years of professional experience supporting people through mood, family, and addiction challenges. She has worked extensively with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, family conflict, bipolar disorder, and depression, and she addresses a wide range of related concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, caregiver stress, communication difficulties, and panic attacks.

Before becoming a psychotherapist, she taught elementary school for 15 years, a background that informs her work with children and adolescents and gives her a strong affinity for play-based methods. She incorporates play therapy when working with younger clients to create developmentally appropriate ways to express feelings and build coping skills. Her therapeutic approach emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person’s unique needs.

Described as a Christian therapist at heart in her own words, she aims to support individuals and families as they take courageous steps toward greater wellbeing. Her practice is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and personalized care designed to help clients move toward more fulfilling, balanced lives.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Flexible Online Care

Lisa Bryan uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that are tailored to each person's situation. These approaches focus on practical skills and strategies backed by research to address symptoms of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and addictive behaviors, and to improve communication and family dynamics.

She also incorporates play therapy when working with children and adolescents, creating age-appropriate ways for younger clients to express emotions, process experiences, and develop coping skills. Play therapy supports developmental growth and can make therapy more accessible for children who struggle with traditional talk therapy.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lisa works with clients to identify goals, preferences, and needs, and adjusts techniques over time so that the treatment plan fits each individual or family. She draws on her teaching background and clinical experience to adapt methods for different ages and circumstances.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit care into a busy life and to maintain continuity across locations. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, allow ongoing access to support, and enable therapists and clients to work together effectively even when in-person appointments are not possible.
