Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Lisset draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to guide online work with individuals and families. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the client's experience, offering empathetic listening and support to help people explore values, goals, and personal strengths. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can aid in managing anxiety, stress, and low mood through practical strategies. EFT concentrates on emotions and relational patterns, helping partners and family members improve connection and resolve attachment-related struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lisset collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the work remains relevant and focused on the outcomes the client cares about.

Online therapy offers flexible access to a licensed professional through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and receive timely support from different locations, while still working toward meaningful changes with a therapist.
