About Lisa
Lisa Carnicelli is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical, everyday concerns like stress, anxiety, anger, relationships, and parenting. Lisa uses straightforward language and a respectful tone to help people take the next steps toward feeling better.
Her background includes work across nonprofit, independent practice, higher education, and community settings. That variety shaped a flexible approach that blends several evidence-informed methods.
Background and approach
Lisa often helps clients spot unhelpful thought patterns and try small experiments to see what changes behavior and mood. In sessions she listens first and adapts her style to each person. She emphasizes clear goals, doable strategies, and steady progress rather than quick fixes.
For relationship and intimacy issues she pays attention to patterns of interaction and communication skills. Lisa also works with grief, trauma and abuse, bipolar concerns, career transitions, and identity issues including LGBT-related questions. She can support people facing loneliness, guilt, shame, and parenting stress, and she brings focused attention to anger and control issues.
Her toolkit includes Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Mindfulness Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions are offered in English and she provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit varied schedules. People who choose Lisa often want practical steps, clearer communication, and relief from repetitive patterns.
To get started, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step are used to set up an initial appointment.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Lisa often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and test thoughts that feed anxiety, depression, or anger. CBT focuses on practical skills and small behavioral changes that can reduce distress and improve daily functioning.She also draws from Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) when relationship patterns and emotional bonding are central concerns. EFT helps people identify core emotions and change interaction cycles that keep problems stuck.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan as you learn what helps. That collaborative process aims to match techniques to your preferences rather than assuming one path suits everyone.
Online therapy with Lisa is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow fuller face-to-face conversation, phone calls can work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports a shorter check-in, and text messaging lets you exchange thoughts between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep consistent momentum between appointments.
