About Lisa

Lisa Amarlapudi is a California-licensed psychologist with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, mood disorders such as bipolar disorder, depression, and ADHD. She aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable and clear.

Lisa believes people know important parts of their own story and brings a respectful, down-to-earth approach to sessions. She listens for strengths and helps clients use those strengths to face daily challenges.

Background and approach

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused rather than overly technical. In her work she supports people through major life shifts like divorce and separation, pregnancy and childbirth, and other transitions that can affect mood and purpose. She also addresses concerns such as self-love, forgiveness, and finding life direction.

The focus is on practical steps and real-world coping strategies. Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person’s situation. She helps clients break big problems into small, doable steps and practices skills in session that can be used between meetings.

Progress is measured in everyday changes and improved coping. Her practice offers several ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are supported.

Work is coordinated so therapy can fit around life demands and schedules.

How evidence-based care translates to online therapy

Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in simple, practical ways. One common approach she relies on is focused skill-building that breaks larger problems into small steps and practices specific strategies for mood and anxiety regulation. This helps people build routines and habits that reduce day-to-day distress.

She also uses structured problem-solving and goal-oriented methods that clarify what matters most and create an action plan. These techniques are useful for managing ADHD-related challenges, coping with life transitions, and organizing tasks so they feel less overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to a person's goals and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. Clients and therapist adjust methods over time so the plan fits the person's life and produces useful change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different practical needs. Video is helpful for a deeper conversational session, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging lets someone send notes or questions between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and changing routines.
