Dr. Lisa Hammons

Dr. Lisa Hammons is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with 14 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed by stress or anxiety, dealing with low self-esteem, or facing depression. She also supports people coping with life changes and relationship concerns.

Her work focuses on clear, practical conversations. Sessions are a place to name what feels off, test small changes, and try new ways of handling hard moments. She listens for patterns in thinking and behavior that keep problems repeating and helps clients map out manageable next steps.

Lisa has worked across a range of issues that often come together. These include caregiver stress, aging and geriatric concerns, body image and eating-related issues, communication problems, and the aftermath of separation or divorce. She also addresses codependency, guilt, shame, and feelings of emptiness.

Her style favors straightforward feedback and collaborative planning rather than long lectures. Clients can expect focused sessions that look at what’s happening now and what can change in everyday life. Progress is approached in small, testable steps rather than promises of quick fixes.

People who choose her do so to work through concrete problems and to find clearer ways to move forward when life feels uncertain. She works in English and practices in Mississippi.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to address clear problems in a straightforward way. One common approach is brief, problem-focused work that identifies unhelpful thinking and tests small behavioral changes; this helps with anxiety, low mood, and motivation struggles. Another approach emphasizes practical skills for managing stress and relationship patterns, such as communication strategies and coping plans for difficult moments.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will use a collaborative discussion to decide which techniques fit a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. This means trying methods, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than assuming one way will work for everyone.

Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not specify which ones are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins can be scheduled during a lunch break, and sessions that do not require video can reduce bandwidth needs. These practical options can help people keep therapy consistent while juggling everyday responsibilities.
