Therapeutic Approaches for Online Healing and Change

Lisa Mulholland integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy along with Motivational Interviewing to support clients in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, helping people with depression, anxiety, and patterns that interfere with daily life. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the effects of traumatic experiences by teaching skills to manage symptoms, process painful memories at a manageable pace, and rebuild a sense of safety and control. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way of exploring a person’s own motivations for change and strengthening commitment to goals, often useful for addictions and ambivalence about life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lisa works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress is made.

Online therapy with Lisa is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home, during a break at work, or while traveling, and allow therapy to fit more readily into varied routines.
