Lisa Rich, LPC

Lisa Rich is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 26 years of experience. She has worked in private practice, inpatient hospital settings, in-home counseling, residential programs, agencies, and crisis services. She helps people facing depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, family conflict, and other struggles.

Her background spans many settings, so she often draws on practical skills from different parts of her career. Lisa emphasizes listening first and building a trusting relationship. She matches her approach to each person's needs rather than using one fixed method.

Therapy sessions are collaborative and down-to-earth. Lisa uses client-centered techniques to understand each person's story and goals. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful patterns and dialectical behavior methods to build emotion regulation and coping skills.

Motivational interviewing is part of her work when people need help making changes, and mindfulness techniques are used to increase awareness and calm. She describes her style as gentle but willing to challenge when that helps progress.

Her aim is to teach concrete coping skills and tools so people can manage symptoms and move toward a more satisfying life. Lisa works from West Virginia and conducts sessions in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How Lisa Uses Therapy Approaches Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding your perspective. The therapist listens without judgment and helps you set goals that matter to you. This approach can be helpful for building trust and clarifying what you want to change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thinking and develop healthier behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and mood problems.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for handling strong emotions and improving relationships. It offers specific tools like distress tolerance and emotion regulation that many people find useful during stressful periods.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Lisa will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She adapts her style over time as progress is made.
