Lisa Aragon , LPC

Lisa Aragon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of experience supporting people through depression, anxiety, and major life transitions. She practices from a person-centered perspective, helping individuals explore their goals, build resilience, and move toward becoming their best selves. Her background includes roles as an academic coach and advisor, supporting students to achieve success in college, as well as work as a vocational rehabilitation counselor assisting people with disabilities to find meaningful employment. These varied experiences inform a practical, strengths-based approach to therapy that honors each person’s aspirations and abilities.

Beyond traditional counseling, she brings communication expertise to relationship work and has professional mediation training through the U.S. Department of Justice, which strengthens her ability to help families and couples navigate conflict and improve dialogue. She is driven by a clear desire to help others meet life goals and to improve interpersonal connections. Taking the first step toward therapy can be challenging, and Lisa acknowledges that courage while offering steady, collaborative support throughout the therapeutic process.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Lisa draws from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to guide online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's lead to explore values, strengths, and goals - this approach is helpful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and navigating life changes. CBT offers practical tools to identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop new coping strategies, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Lisa collaborates with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she adjusts techniques over time so treatment stays aligned with what the client finds most helpful and relevant.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility in how people connect - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, manage caregiving or work obligations, and access consistent support from home or other convenient locations.
