About Lisa
Lisa Stammerjohann is an LPC with 35 years of experience helping people navigate major life transitions and daily stress. She brings a calm, steady presence and focuses on practical steps clients can use right away. Lisa pays attention to sleep and rest as part of overall wellbeing when that is relevant to a person's struggles.
Her work often addresses anxiety, low self-esteem, career concerns, and coping with change. She also helps people facing grief, addiction, trauma, and issues around intimacy and relationships. Lisa listens for the life story behind current problems and helps people find clearer next steps.
Sessions emphasize building coping skills and personal insight. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques may be used to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas help people notice what matters most and take committed action toward those values.
Lisa draws on client-centered and emotionally focused approaches to strengthen self-understanding and emotional contact. She also uses existential ideas when clients are questioning meaning, purpose, or major life direction. These approaches are blended to match each person’s needs.
People often come for help with sleep problems tied to stress or life change, caregiving strain, midlife transitions, or the long-term effects of shame and guilt. Lisa works with adults in New Jersey to identify practical strategies and realistic goals. The focus is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.
How key approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters and take small, committed steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, sleep disruption linked to worry, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like insomnia or anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the person guides the pace and focus of sessions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, daily routines, and what feels most helpful. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what works and what doesn’t.
If you are considering online work, confirm the session formats offered before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins during work breaks, and reduce travel time. They can also help when quieter surroundings or less screen time are preferred. Discuss practical needs and preferences in the first meeting so sessions can be arranged to fit everyday life.
