Lisa Wing

Lisa Wing is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) based in Maine. She has been a licensed clinician for nine years and brings a long history in the mental health field to her work. Lisa describes a straightforward, down-to-earth style and prefers to meet people where they are. Her sessions focus on practical steps clients can use right away. She combines cognitive-behavioral ideas with EMDR and solution-focused strategies to create a plan that fits each person’s life. Lisa emphasizes the client’s role in shaping goals and the path toward them. People come to her for a wide range of concerns. These include stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting, bipolar disorder, depression, and ADHD. She also lists LGBT issues, life purpose, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia among areas she addresses. Her manner is described as practical and occasionally humorous while remaining respectful. She encourages collaboration and aims to empower people to take steps they find meaningful. Sessions focus on clear strategies and steady progress rather than abstract talk. Before scheduling, prospective clients should confirm current session options. Lisa asks people to select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule according to therapist availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's perspective and priorities. It involves listening closely, reflecting what the client says, and shaping goals based on the client’s values and needs. This approach helps when someone wants a therapist who follows their lead and works at their pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing different ways of thinking and acting. It often uses concrete exercises and homework to build new skills for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress management.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used to process troubling memories through structured phases and bilateral stimulation. It is often used for trauma-related symptoms and for reducing the intensity of disturbing recollections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That decision is collaborative and may change as the work proceeds.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, since the biography does not spell out formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also be useful when someone prefers to work without being on camera or when a quieter setting helps concentration.
