Lisa Parise welcomes people who are navigating difficult moments and appreciates the step of seeking support. She is a licensed independent clinical social worker authorized to practice in both Massachusetts and Virginia and holds a Master of Social Work from Fordham University earned in 2006.
With 15 years of clinical experience, Lisa integrates evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and motivational interviewing into her work. She is also trained in Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY), and brings additional qualifications as a registered somatic movement therapist and a registered yoga teacher.
Lisa emphasizes mindfulness and listening to the body’s wisdom as complementary paths toward healing. She has supported individuals coping with trauma-related symptoms, depression, anxiety, and stress, and approaches therapy with compassion and a strong belief in each person’s existing strengths and insight.
She looks forward to collaborating with clients as they move toward recovery and greater well-being in Virginia.
For many common concerns—such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or managing life transitions—online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. It can be an appropriate option for people seeking support for these issues.
Online therapy also offers notable flexibility. Clients can choose the mode of communication that works best for them, whether that is video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to access consistent care and fit therapy into a busy life.
All participating clinicians are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists at any time if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many people, remote therapy provides a practical, evidence-informed path to addressing everyday mental health concerns.
