About Lisa

Lisa Henthorn is a licensed professional clinical counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She supports those managing ADHD, grief, relationship and family concerns, and difficulties with self-esteem. Her approach is straightforward and focused on practical steps people can use day to day.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques. Sessions emphasize clear goals, skill-building, and small changes that add up. Conversations are direct and respectful, with time spent teaching coping skills and practicing them together.

Lisa earned a master’s degree from Lindsey Wilson College in 2017 and has seven years of professional experience. She has worked with people affected by trauma, mood disorders, grief, and adjustment struggles. That background informs a calm, steady style in sessions.

Her work often centers on improving communication, managing intense emotions, and rebuilding routine after life transitions. She also addresses issues like addiction, codependency, body image, and caregiver stress. The focus is on what a person can try now to feel more in control.

Clients can expect a collaborative relationship where goals are reviewed and adjusted over time. Lisa aims to equip people with skills they can use between sessions. She practices in West Virginia and holds the LPCC and LCMHC credentials.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression. It breaks problems into manageable steps and gives concrete tools people can use between sessions.

DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills. It can help when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationships are strained, and it emphasizes practical skills practiced in everyday life.

Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and simple attention skills to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and focus. These exercises are short and can fit into a busy day.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration may involve trying different tools and adjusting the plan over time.

Confirm available session formats before booking, as specific options are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to schedule sessions around work, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice skills in the moments they need them, which supports real-world change without promising any specific outcome.
