About Lisa

Lisa Carnicelli, Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York, has 15 years of clinical practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and related life challenges. Her work also addresses grief, intimacy issues, parenting stress, career concerns, bipolar conditions, and compassion fatigue. Sessions draw on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused methods.

Lisa uses clear, practical conversation to help people sort their priorities and reduce distress. She listens for patterns in thoughts and behavior and introduces concrete tools clients can try between sessions. She works collaboratively to set goals and tracks progress in ways that make sense day-to-day.

Her background includes counseling in nonprofit agencies, private practice, higher education, and community settings. That range shaped a flexible approach to common problems like communication breakdowns, commitment worries, and parenting strain. She pays attention to how life transitions and family dynamics affect mood and relationships.

Lisa often blends brief skill-building with deeper emotional work when needed. For example, she may pair cognitive strategies for anxiety with emotionally focused conversations about attachment and connection. She also incorporates mindfulness practices to help with intrusive thoughts and emotion regulation.

People who prefer straightforward feedback and practical steps tend to do well with her style. She asks about goals, helps prioritize next steps, and revisits tools that worked or did not. Sessions emphasize usable skills alongside attention to feelings and relationship patterns.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and building an understanding of a person’s experience. It helps when someone needs a responsive therapist who reflects feelings and priorities and helps set goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete strategies for anxiety, panic, depression, and mood swings by testing unhelpful thoughts and practicing alternative behaviors.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy targets patterns in close relationships. It helps people notice interaction cycles, express underlying emotions, and try new ways of connecting when intimacy or communication is strained.

Lisa treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will review goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to focus on over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can use these advantages to support consistent work on skills, communication habits, and emotional processing.
