About Lisa

Lisa Gray is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 18 years of experience in the helping professions. She focuses on guiding people who face trauma, loss, addiction, and major life changes. Lisa aims to help clients regain hope, rebuild values, and move toward goals that matter to them.

She describes her work as practical and direct. Sessions often address trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Lisa also supports people dealing with parenting strain, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and work-related pressure.

Her approach draws on several therapeutic styles to match a person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used to address the effects of abuse and overwhelming events. Narrative and Jungian ideas may be woven in to help people make sense of their stories and values.

Lisa emphasizes collaboration and clear goals. She works with each person to set small, achievable steps and checks progress as therapy continues. Mindfulness techniques are often used to help with stress, sleep, and emotional regulation.

She practices in Michigan and offers sessions in English. Lisa welcomes people who are ready to work on recovery, coping skills, and renewed purpose, and she supports international clients as well.

How Lisa’s Approaches Work Online

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the effects of trauma and abuse. It helps people process difficult memories and reduce the symptoms that follow traumatic events. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors through practical exercises and homework tasks.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. This is a collaborative effort where plans are adjusted as progress is made.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm available session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as allowing shorter check-ins during a break or avoiding travel time. They also let people join from different locations, which can help when schedules or mobility are a concern. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises and trauma-focused techniques for remote work so people can practice skills between meetings.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing trauma-focused therapy does not mean a therapist holds a specific certification such as TF-CBT, EMDR or CPT.
