About Lisa

Dr. Lisa Hammons is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with 14 years of professional experience. She helps people who are feeling stuck by addressing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression, and the challenge of coping with life changes. Her work also includes support around motivation and confidence.

She uses practical conversation to sort what matters now. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps people can take between meetings. Lisa listens for patterns that keep problems recurring and helps people try new ways of responding in everyday life.

Her practice also covers aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, body image and eating concerns, and complicated feelings such as guilt, shame, and emptiness. She addresses strained communication, codependency, commitment worries, and the aftermath of separation or domestic violence with attention to immediate needs.

Lisa aims to make space for honest talk about practical decisions. She checks what is working and adjusts plans as needed. People leave sessions with small, achievable tasks to test changes and gather feedback.

Her approach is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and focused on collaboration. She asks questions to clarify values and priorities, and helps people weigh options when work, relationships, or health change what comes next.

How evidence-based techniques guide online sessions

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques refer to methods that focus on practical changes in thinking and behavior. One common approach helps people notice and test unhelpful thinking patterns. This can reduce anxiety and low mood by changing how situations are interpreted and responded to in daily life.

Another useful approach focuses on behavior change through small, achievable experiments. It supports people who feel stuck by breaking larger problems into steps that can be tried and reviewed. That method is often helpful for motivation, depression, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to identify which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences. This is a practical process of trying methods, reviewing results, and adjusting the plan together.

The profile does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments during a lunch break or between errands. Phone sessions may be useful for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited, while video calls let people use visual cues during conversation. Licensed professionals can help choose the format that best suits scheduling and daily routines.
