About Lisa
Lisa Fix is a licensed clinical professional counselor in Illinois with 33 years of experience. She came to counseling because of a lifelong interest in helping others and personal experience with therapy. Lisa aims to make the first step easier by offering a calm, straightforward way into care.
Her background includes work in community mental health, a hospital-based eating disorder program, and a university counseling center. Those settings shaped her comfort with a wide range of concerns, from mood and anxiety issues to grief and addiction.
Background and approach
She blends practical strategies with a personal, relaxed style. In sessions she uses approaches people can understand and try right away. She listens first and tailors methods to each person’s needs.
She offers direct feedback and gentle challenges when the client is ready to work on change. Lisa helps people talk through stress, anxiety, depression, eating and body image concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, trauma and abuse, and problems with sleep or anger. She also supports those coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and mood disorders such as bipolar.
Her practice includes work related to obsessive-compulsive symptoms, panic, postpartum depression, and social anxiety. Outside of work she enjoys exercise, gardening, coffee and chocolate, time with companion animals, and lighthearted videos. She encourages people to treat the first conversation like an interview to see if the fit feels right.

Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Lisa commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on active listening, empathy, and creating a space where a person feels heard; it helps with building trust and exploring feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try methods that match those needs and adjust as progress is made.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging provide flexible ways to share thoughts between sessions or fit support into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and to use techniques and homework between meetings.
