About Lisa
Lisa Lee-Briggs is a California licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on relationship and family challenges, parenting concerns, mood and impulse problems, and related issues such as grief, addiction, and eating concerns. Sessions are offered in English and French.
She takes a direct, practical approach to conversations. Lisa helps people name patterns that lead to snapping, resentment, or acting on impulse. She focuses on clearer communication, practical coping skills, and steps people can try between sessions. The aim is steadier responses rather than quick fixes.
Her work covers intimacy issues and relationship strain, parenting stress, and problems that follow trauma or loss. She also supports people dealing with low self-esteem, burnout and compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges, and mood instability such as bipolar concerns. Anger and control issues are part of the list of concerns she routinely addresses.
Lisa uses a range of evidence-based techniques, including cognitive behavior therapy and Gestalt-informed methods. She adapts techniques to fit the person and situation, and explains practical tools clearly during sessions. Clients can expect focused, goal-oriented conversations and concrete strategies to practice between meetings.
Her background includes work with blended family challenges, separation and divorce questions, family-of-origin patterns, codependency, and issues around body image and food. She emphasizes understanding how communication and behavior interact, and she helps people try different ways of relating and reacting.
How sessions work
Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Lisa commonly uses cognitive behavior therapy, which breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replaces them with practical strategies. CBT can help with anger, impulse control, mood challenges, and repetitive negative thinking. Gestalt-informed techniques are also part of her work; these focus on present-moment awareness and how patterns of interaction show up in relationships and daily life.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Lisa adapts methods to fit the person's needs and explains why a particular exercise or skill is being used.
The biography does not specify which online session formats she offers, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare, or other commitments. They also allow shorter check-ins when a brief update is needed, or sessions without video when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Many people find remote sessions reduce travel time and help keep therapy consistent during busy periods.
