About Lisa
Lisa Lee-Briggs is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people who are struggling with relationships, family conflict, intimacy concerns, parenting pressures, mood issues, addiction, and related stresses. Sessions are offered in English and French.
She takes a straightforward, problem-solving approach. Lisa helps people identify patterns that keep repeating and tries practical ways to shift them. Conversations focus on clearer communication, managing strong emotions, and making choices that feel more manageable day to day.
Her work often looks at family of origin issues, blended family adjustments, codependency patterns, and how grief or loss shows up in relationships. She also supports people dealing with eating and body image concerns, trauma and abuse, bipolar mood challenges, and the fatigue that comes from caregiving or helping others.
Lisa describes using a range of evidence-based techniques, including cognitive behavior oriented work and Gestalt methods. She matches techniques to the person and the situation rather than using a single method for everyone. The goal is to find practical tools that fit how a person thinks and lives.
Practical matters are kept clear. She practices in California under her LMFT credential, and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session via the site.
How sessions work
How Lisa uses common therapeutic methods online
Lisa often draws on cognitive behavior oriented work and Gestalt techniques. Cognitive behavior approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like low mood, anxiety, or problematic patterns with others. Gestalt methods pay attention to present-moment experience, noticing patterns in interactions and bodily responses to improve awareness and communication.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation typically happens in early sessions and can shift as work progresses.
If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the exact session formats when you sign up. The practical benefits of remote work include fitting sessions into a busy week, reducing travel time, and making shorter check-ins easier to schedule. Phone sessions can make check-ins quicker when camera time is difficult, and video sessions allow for face-to-face conversation that supports communication practice. Confirm current session options before booking to pick the format that best fits daily life.
