About Lisa

Lisa Longo is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and a licensed professional counselor in Oregon. She combines practical, interactive work with clear feedback to help people facing stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and problems with sleep and rest. Lisa keeps sessions focused and goal-oriented so people can find relief and make concrete changes.

She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address current problems and patterns that come from the past. Lisa uses short-term tools for coping and longer conversations to understand recurring difficulties like attachment wounds, abandonment, or codependency. She also helps with life transitions, career stress, and intimacy-related concerns.

Clients can expect a collaborative style that balances emotional support with straightforward guidance. Lisa aims to create a calm space where people feel heard and understood while learning practical strategies. Her background includes work in mental health and human services spanning more than two decades before becoming licensed.

With six years of post-licensure experience, Lisa applies what she has learned in community and clinical settings. She helps people manage symptoms of depression, trauma responses, anger, and addictive behaviors while working toward better sleep and day-to-day functioning.

Her approach is adaptable to each person’s needs and pace. Those interested in beginning can use the Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session according to therapist availability.

Evidence-based approaches and online care that fit your life

Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional processing. One approach emphasizes structured, goal-oriented work to build coping skills and reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbance. This method offers clear strategies you can practice between sessions to improve daily functioning.

Another strand centers on understanding relationship patterns and attachment. Sessions look at how past experiences shape current struggles with intimacy, abandonment, or codependency, and then develop new ways of relating that support healthier connections and restfulness.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be a collaborative effort. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, pacing, and preferences, adjusting techniques as needs change.

Clients should confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow people to meet from a quieter location or to choose audio-only or video conversation depending on comfort and practicality.
