About Lisa
Lisa Henthorn is an LPCC and an LCMHC with seven years of clinical experience based in West Virginia. She helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, relationship and family concerns, ADHD, grief, and other life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than long theoretical talks.
She uses brief, direct tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and change small routines that make life harder. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when intense emotions and self-regulation are getting in the way. Mindfulness techniques help slow down reactive moments. Solution-Focused approaches keep work goal-oriented and immediate.
In conversation she tends to be straightforward and task-focused. Clients can expect to talk through recent problems, set small goals, and try concrete strategies between meetings. Progress is checked regularly and plans are adjusted when needed.
Her background includes a master’s degree from Lindsey Wilson College earned in 2017. Lisa has worked with people facing mood disorders, PTSD, personality difficulties, and co-occurring concerns such as substance use and motivation problems. That experience informs a practical, problem-solving approach in sessions.
People coming in for parenting stress or family problems can expect help sorting priorities, improving communication, and managing overwhelm. She also gives tools for sleep, eating concerns, and coping with career pressure. The focus is on actions a person can try right away to reduce strain and regain some control.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Lisa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety and low mood. DBT focuses on practical emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication when feelings run high.She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice reactions and pause before responding, and Solution-Focused Therapy to build quick, achievable steps toward specific goals. Together these methods aim to give clear tools you can use between sessions rather than rely on long explanations.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative decision is revisited as work progresses to keep sessions useful.
The original biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around parenting, work, or caregiving responsibilities, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling to appointments. Licensed professionals adapt CBT, DBT, and mindfulness exercises so they remain practical and actionable in remote sessions.
