About Lisa

Lisa Hammond is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) practicing in Ohio. She brings five years of professional experience to sessions and focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and attention concerns such as ADHD. Her approach is straightforward and caring, aimed at people who want practical help rather than jargon.

She works with issues tied to relationships and communication, including struggles with trust, jealousy, and feeling isolated.

Background and approach

Lisa also has experience related to adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, and caregiver stress. She listens for the patterns that keep people stuck and helps them try different ways of responding. Sessions are shaped to fit each person’s needs.

Lisa emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in conversations. She helps clients set realistic goals and tests small changes that can lead to better daily functioning. Practical tools and problem-solving are often part of her work.

She supports people dealing with control issues, impulsivity, memory or concentration complaints, and the emotional weight of guilt or forgiveness. The aim is to help people regain confidence and clearer direction. Taking the first step can feel scary, and Lisa frames that as a brave move.

She offers steady support while people try out new habits and make decisions. Her style is warm, direct, and tuned to real life concerns.

Approaches and how online therapy supports them

Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and problem-solving. One common approach is practical skills training that teaches routines, organization, and attention strategies to help with concentration and daily tasks. This kind of work is useful for people managing ADHD-related challenges or trouble staying focused.

Another approach emphasizes improving communication and relationships by practicing clearer expression and boundaries. It helps people manage jealousy, trust issues, and recurring conflicts by trying new habits in small steps. A third focus is caregiver and attachment-related work, which looks at patterns formed by adoption, foster care, or caregiving roles and supports healthier ways to relate and cope.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and what seems most useful, then adjust methods as progress is made. Clients are invited to give feedback and try different techniques until something fits.

Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and messaging let people check in between appointments or use shorter, written updates when speaking by phone or video is harder. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and different schedules.
