About Lisa
Lisa Wing is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maine with nine years as a licensed clinician and over two decades of work in the mental health field. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar, ADHD, and life purpose concerns among other issues. Lisa works with adults who feel stuck after changes in work, health, or relationships and want practical ways forward.
She uses a mix of cognitive-behavioral techniques, EMDR, dialectical behavior ideas, motivational interviewing, and client-centered talk to address present problems. Sessions focus on identifying what currently gets in the way and testing small, doable steps that fit everyday life. She pays attention to trauma, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, and intimacy-related concerns when they affect daily functioning.
Lisa describes her style as down-to-earth and no-nonsense. She uses humor sometimes and treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life. Together she and the client build a treatment plan with clear goals and practical strategies to try between sessions.
Her background includes varied roles across clinical settings and work with people from multiple communities, including LGBTQ individuals. Those experiences inform how she adapts methods like CBT and EMDR to make them useful for current problems and goals.
People who come because they feel directionless often leave with concrete steps to try and clearer ways to measure progress. Her approach aims to keep sessions focused on what can be changed now and how those changes fit into a person's day-to-day routines.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. It helps people clarify values and goals and feel understood while deciding what to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, then tests practical changes that can reduce anxiety or improve mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work with the client to choose or blend methods that match needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning makes it easier to try techniques between sessions and adjust them when something does not fit.
Confirm the current session options before booking. Many people choose remote work because it can fit into a work break, remove travel time, or allow a shorter check-in when needed. Online sessions can also let a person use video when they want face-to-face cues or switch to audio when bandwidth is limited. Ask about the available formats and scheduling to see which practical option fits everyday life.
