Dr. Lisa Page, LCPC

Dr. Lisa Page is a Health Psychologist and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois with 15 years of experience. She takes an empathetic, goal-oriented approach that emphasizes positive, practical steps toward improved mental and physical well-being. Her primary clinical method is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), guided by Adlerian influence, which she applies to concerns such as depression, anxiety, sleep difficulties, weight management, recovery from substance use, and other lifestyle-related conditions.

Dr. Page combines CBT with Motivational Interviewing to help clients move past fear and resistance to change, working collaboratively to remove barriers and reach sustainable goals. She aims to create individualized care plans and offers frank, direct feedback when it serves the client’s progress. She is also pursuing diplomate status with The American College of Lifestyle Medicine and the Board of Behavioral Sleep Medicine to deepen her expertise in the six pillars of Lifestyle Medicine - healthy sleep, nutritious eating, stress management, balanced social life, reducing negative behaviors, and regular physical activity.

Her doctorate was earned at the Colorado School of Professional Psychology, now the University of the Rockies in Colorado Springs, and she has ten years of experience as an adjunct professor at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. She supports local organizations working on social justice reform and co-authored an audiobook on burnout that is available on Amazon.

Approaches for online therapy and practical benefits

Dr. Page commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is often used for conditions such as anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and lifestyle-related concerns by teaching concrete skills and structured strategies.

She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy, which helps clients build awareness of thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations through simple attention practices. Mindfulness can be useful for managing stress, improving sleep routines, and increasing emotional resilience.

Motivational Interviewing is another tool Dr. Page uses to support clients who feel stuck or ambivalent about change. This approach helps uncover personal values and strengthen motivation so clients can move toward their goals more confidently.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Page works collaboratively with each person to tailor methods based on their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit care into a busy schedule and maintain continuity of support. These options allow licensed professionals and therapists to meet clients where they are, supporting consistent progress without requiring travel.
