About Lisa

Lisa Rich is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in West Virginia with 26 years of clinical experience. Over the course of her career she has worked in diverse settings including private practice, inpatient hospitalization, in-home counseling, agency roles, residential programs, and numerous crisis-response environments. That breadth of experience has given her a wide perspective on common and complex concerns such as depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, anxiety, family conflict, grief and loss, and related challenges.

She draws from a range of therapeutic methods - including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, trauma-informed and narrative approaches, and client-centered therapy - and prefers to tailor her approach to the needs of each person. Lisa places a strong emphasis on building rapport and a trusting therapeutic relationship, and she describes herself as a careful listener who brings a gentle style while also offering challenge when it will support growth. Her aim is to help people develop practical coping skills and tools so they can move toward a more satisfying, resilient life and become their best selves.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, collaborative relationship where the therapist follows the client’s lead, offers empathy, and supports personal insight - it helps people explore values, identity, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-oriented approach that identifies unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches tools to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) blends acceptance with change strategies and emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially useful for intense emotions and impulsivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Lisa works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds. Clients are active partners in choosing a path that feels useful and respectful to their circumstances.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, over the phone, via live chat, or through text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy lives and to access support from home or other convenient locations. This flexibility helps people maintain continuity of care and practice new skills between sessions with the guidance of licensed professionals and therapists.
