Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Support

Lisa Stammerjohann uses a blend of evidence-informed approaches tailored to each person’s needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and engage in meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise - it is often used for stress, anxiety, and issues tied to life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and sleep problems, and to build practical coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own experience, offering empathic listening and a collaborative relationship to support self-discovery and growth.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lisa works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances, and she adjusts strategies over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals. These formats provide flexibility for scheduling, allow sessions from home or other convenient locations, and can help sustain progress when in-person visits are not feasible.
