About Lisa

Lisa Gray is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 18 years of experience. She helps adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and issues tied to family and relationships. She also supports people facing addiction, intimacy-related struggles, parenting strain, and challenges like ADHD and compassion fatigue.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. She uses methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to look at current patterns and habits. She also draws on narrative and Jungian ideas to help people understand recurring family roles and personal stories that shape their choices.

Sessions focus on clear goals and achievable steps. Lisa talks through how past family dynamics still influence present behavior. She helps people identify patterns of control, abandonment, codependency, and attachment struggles and then tries different ways to shift them.

She has worked with adults across a wide age range and has experience addressing difficult life events such as loss, trauma, and major life transitions. That background includes work with adoption and foster care concerns, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and blended-family challenges.

People working with her can expect a mix of short-term problem solving and deeper work on long-standing patterns. She uses practical exercises, reflection, and focused conversation to help people make changes that fit day-to-day life.

How her approaches translate to online work

Lisa often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) online, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or mood problems. CBT is useful for issues like stress, sleep problems, and some forms of addiction.

She also integrates Mindfulness Therapy, which teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help manage overwhelming feelings and improve present-moment noticing. Narrative Therapy is used as well to look at the stories people tell about their family roles and identity, and to try reframing those stories for different outcomes.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then suggest methods that fit those needs. Over time the plan can change based on what works in real life.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt exercises used in person for virtual work so the methods remain practical and goal-focused.
