About Lisa

Lisa Lee-Briggs is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California. She brings 13 years of clinical experience and a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions. Lisa focuses on relationship and family concerns, and she also helps with parenting, grief, depression, addictions, and life transitions.

Clients meet a therapist who values respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Lisa uses straightforward conversation to help people find their own answers. She tailors each treatment plan to fit a person's specific needs and goals.

She often focuses on communication skills so people can express themselves more clearly. This includes work around intimacy-related issues, blended family dynamics, and conflict that keeps repeating. Lisa also addresses issues such as codependency, control problems, and isolation.

Her clinical work draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and Gestalt methods, mixed with other approaches chosen to match the situation. She aims to identify practical steps that people can use between sessions to make steady progress.

Lisa also supports people dealing with eating and body-image concerns, ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, and compassion fatigue. She frames difficult moments as opportunities to learn new ways of coping and relating. Taking the first step can be hard, and she offers steady guidance through that process.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Lisa uses cognitive behavioral techniques and Gestalt-inspired methods to help people address relationship patterns and emotional challenges. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors to create small, practical changes that can reduce depression, anxiety, and unhelpful reactions. Gestalt methods emphasize awareness in the moment and clearer communication, which can be useful for intimacy issues and family conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and life situation. That means trying tools in session and adjusting them as needed so the plan fits the client.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which online formats are offered. Online therapy can help fit care into a busy schedule, reduce time spent traveling, and make it easier to keep regular appointments. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed, and for using video or audio in ways that suit the person’s comfort and bandwidth. Discuss format preferences when scheduling so sessions work with everyday life.
