About Lisa

Lisa Stammerjohann integrates evidence-informed therapies to help clients navigate transitions and day-to-day struggles. With 35 years as a licensed professional counselor, she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered techniques to help people address anxiety, depression, stress, and low self-esteem.

Background and approach

Her work often focuses on practical coping strategies, clarifying life purpose, and reducing patterns that get in the way of a more satisfying life. Based in New Jersey, Lisa brings long-standing clinical experience to concerns such as relationship and family difficulties, grief and loss, trauma and abuse, addictions, and intimacy-related issues.

She also addresses challenges tied to aging and caregiver stress, fertility and parenting issues, hoarding tendencies, and feelings of isolation or emptiness. Sessions emphasize understanding personal narratives, building healthier coping responses, and fostering emotional growth through collaborative exploration.

Clients can expect a supportive, respectful approach that balances practical skill-building with an openness to deeper existential questions. Lisa works with each person to tailor strategies that fit their values and goals, helping them move toward greater resilience and well-being.

Therapeutic approaches for online care and practical change



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, teaching concrete skills to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and manage stress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizes connecting with personal values and using acceptance strategies to respond differently to difficult thoughts and feelings, which can support work on meaning, life purpose, and coping with change. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and creating a respectful, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their experiences and find their own solutions.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals and then blend these methods to create a personalized plan. That collaborative stance helps ensure interventions fit the client's values and everyday life.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible options for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to access consistent support from a licensed professional without traveling, and they allow therapy to be integrated into busy routines while maintaining continuity of care.
