Lisa Mendoza, LPCC

Lisa Mendoza is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and family-related concerns. She speaks English and Spanish and brings 14 years of clinical experience to each session. Her work often focuses on caregiver stress, codependency, attachment and abandonment concerns, and managing difficult family dynamics.

She prefers a straightforward, warm style in sessions. Lisa listens first to what feels most urgent, then helps set small, practical goals. Sessions may include talking through painful memories, practicing new ways to communicate, and building routines that reduce daily stress.

Her practice pays attention to relationships and history. That can mean exploring how family of origin issues affect current choices, or how blended family arrangements create ongoing tension. She also supports people coping with divorce, separation, domestic violence aftermath, and substance use challenges.

Lisa values collaboration. She works with each person to shape a plan that fits their life and responsibilities. This often involves problem-solving around caregiving demands, boundary setting, and rebuilding trust after hurt.

Approaches that guide online work

Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people address symptoms and relationship patterns. One common approach focuses on processing trauma and painful memories in manageable steps, helping reduce overwhelming reactions and build a clearer sense of safety and control. Another approach centers on attachment and relationship patterns, looking at how early bonds shape communication, trust, and expectations in adult relationships.

Finding the right approach is often part of the work. Lisa partners with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. That collaboration helps keep therapy practical and focused on day-to-day changes that matter.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and enable check-ins during a break at work or between caregiving responsibilities. It can also allow sessions in the language you prefer, so be sure to note English or Spanish when you arrange your first appointment.
