About Lisa
Lisa Stammerjohann is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey with 35 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She also addresses grief, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, and feelings of guilt and shame.
She integrates practical, talk-based methods to help people notice what matters to them and how they want to live. Sessions often include looking at thoughts and behaviors, naming painful emotions, and trying small changes to reduce daily distress. Lisa draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered listening, and cognitive behavioral ideas.
Many people come to her when they feel stuck by family history, faith questions, midlife shifts, or caregiving demands. She also has experience with issues that come with aging and with the strain caregivers face. Her work includes attention to forgiveness, life purpose, and isolation or loneliness.
Her style is straightforward and steady. She helps people sort what they are facing and choose manageable next steps. Conversations can include discussing coping skills, setting boundaries, and clarifying values when decisions feel heavy.
Lisa sees therapy as a practical process that combines honest conversation with concrete practices. People who bring concerns about career stress, sleeping problems, or control and commitment worries can expect focused conversations and follow-up tasks that fit day-to-day life.
How Lisa uses common approaches in remote sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking steps toward them even when difficult emotions are present. It helps when shame or guilt are blocking actions you care about. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting back what matters to you, which can help when someone needs to clarify feelings about family, faith, or life choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical exercises to shift unhelpful habits and reduce anxiety and depression.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Lisa will collaborate with each person to decide which approach fits their situation and goals. That discussion guides whether sessions emphasize values and acceptance, reflective listening, or skills and behavioral experiments.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday break, cut commuting time, or use a shorter phone check‑in when days are busy. Those practical benefits often help people keep therapy consistent while managing caregiving, work, or other responsibilities.
