About Lisa

Lisa Bicket is an Illinois-licensed clinical social worker with 22 years of experience helping people navigate complex emotional and life challenges.

Background and approach

She draws on a client-centered stance that prioritizes listening and tailoring interventions to each person's needs, with a long history addressing anxiety, depression, stress, and major life transitions. Her training and practice also encompass work with trauma, grief, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD, among other concerns.

Her style blends practical skills and emotional support to help clients strengthen self-esteem, improve communication, and manage relationship and family issues. Lisa often integrates cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices alongside motivational and solution-focused methods to create personalized strategies for coping and growth.

She emphasizes collaboration, helping clients set realistic goals and build resilience while honoring their individual values and experiences.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Lisa commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT sessions focus on practical exercises and behavioral experiments that translate well to video or phone sessions where homework and progress can be reviewed together.

She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. Mindfulness techniques are easily guided over video or through written prompts in messaging, making them useful for managing sleep, anger, and ongoing worry.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to explore what feels most helpful, adjusting methods and pace according to goals, preferences, and the issues presented so treatment remains responsive and individualized.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different lifestyles and schedules. These formats let clients access consistent care without geographic constraints, maintain progress between appointments, and choose the communication style that fits their daily routine.
