Lisa Gray , LPC

Lisa Gray is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings 18 years of experience to her work. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and addiction find steadier ground. Lisa practices in Michigan and offers sessions in English, including to international clients.

Her style is straightforward and practical. She focuses on small, achievable steps so people can feel progress quickly. Sessions often include talking through current problems, building coping tools, and reframing unhelpful patterns. Lisa aims to restore hope and a sense of value in each person she meets.

Lisa draws on several therapeutic approaches to match the needs of the person in front of her. She uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to identify and change thinking that fuels anxiety or depression. She also works with narrative and mindfulness methods to help people rewrite difficult life stories and stay present when emotions feel overwhelming.

Many clients come for concerns tied to family stress, intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, sleeping problems, or workplace burnout. She also supports people facing identity wounds such as abandonment or attachment struggles, and those coping with chronic illness or caregiver stress. Lisa helps people address addictive behaviors and the shame that often accompanies them.

Sessions are available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to therapist availability.

Practical approaches for online therapy and change

Lisa often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on spotting and shifting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleeping troubles, and many stress-related issues because it breaks problems into steps that can change over time.

She also uses mindfulness therapy to help people stay present when emotions feel intense. Mindfulness methods teach simple attention and breathing practices that make it easier to tolerate difficult feelings and reduce reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lisa will listen to a person's concerns and goals, then suggest methods that fit their needs and preferences. She treats the choice of tools as collaborative and will adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy lets people access these approaches from many locations. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option and work well for a quick check-in. Live chat or text-based messaging can fit shorter, frequent touchpoints or times when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while still using the same therapeutic methods.
