Dr. Lisa Hammons , LPC

Dr. Lisa Hammons helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low in confidence, or stuck after big life changes. She supports those dealing with relationship strain, low self-esteem, and symptoms of depression. Lisa is a Licensed Professional Counselor who offers straightforward, practical support.

She emphasizes a calm, open space where clients can say what they are thinking and feeling without judgment. Sessions focus on small steps you can try between meetings. She pays attention to how daily routines, relationships, and self-talk affect mood and motivation.

Over 14 years she has worked with people facing many challenges, including caregiver stress, aging concerns, body image and eating-related struggles, and the fallout of divorce or separation. She also addresses issues such as codependency, communication problems, guilt, shame, and forgiveness. These topics often overlap, and she helps people see the connections between them.

Her approach is practical and collaborative. She helps people set realistic goals, test new ways of coping, and build skills that fit their life. Sessions are conversational, and Lisa balances listening with concrete suggestions when they are helpful.

Based in Mississippi, she offers flexible online options so people can meet by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Beginning therapy can feel hard, and she aims to make the first steps clear and manageable.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Many of the methods she uses focus on practical, evidence-based techniques that help people change unhelpful habits and manage strong emotions. One approach emphasizes skill-building for managing anxiety and stress, teaching simple breathing, pacing, and behavioral steps that reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Another focuses on addressing negative self-talk and low self-esteem by identifying critical inner messages and testing more balanced ways of thinking and behaving. These approaches are useful for depression, relationship concerns, body image struggles, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works together with each person to identify goals, try different techniques, and decide what feels most useful. Adjustments are made as needs and preferences become clearer over time.

Online therapy offers practical benefits such as flexible scheduling and easier access from different locations. Video calls let people work face to face when needed. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to stay connected between sessions or fit support into a busy day. These options help people maintain continuity and tailor care to their routines.
