About Lisa
Lisa Stammerjohann is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey with 35 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, addictions, grief, and changes like career shifts or midlife transitions. Sessions address everyday pressures as well as longer-standing issues such as guilt, shame, and life purpose.
Her work blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and existential ideas. She listens for patterns in feelings and interactions, and then helps people name what matters to them. That process can make decisions and changes feel clearer.
Lisa often supports people coping with caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, fertility and parenting concerns, and those dealing with isolation or burnout. She also works with people facing the fallout from trauma and abuse, addiction struggles, sleep problems, anger, and compassion fatigue. Practical coping skills and clearer priorities are frequent focuses in sessions.
Her background includes decades of counseling experience across a wide range of life stages and stressors. Sessions tend to combine reflective talk with action steps - for example, testing a new behavior or shifting a relationship pattern. The goal is steady progress through realistic steps rather than quick fixes.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and are handled through a cancellable subscription model.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on patterns in feelings and how those feelings affect behavior and relationships. It helps people name hard-to-identify emotions and shift unhelpful interaction patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills to accept difficult thoughts while committing to values-based action, and it often helps with anxiety, stress, and meaning questions. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the client's concerns, using reflection and listening to help people find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will collaborate with the client to decide whether EFT, ACT, Client-Centered methods, or a mix best fits the person's goals and preferences. That conversation can happen in an initial session and adjust over time as needs change.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into daily life because they remove travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and can be scheduled around work or caregiving duties. Online sessions can also let someone use phone-only meetings if they need less bandwidth or prefer not to be on camera. Practical details about session length and how appointments are scheduled will be provided when arranging the first meeting.
