Lisa Namm

Lisa Namm, LPC, is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Arizona with 12 years of experience. She works with adults and older adults, including military service members, on stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, career uncertainty, and coping with life changes. Lisa lists life purpose among her focus areas and addresses communication and workplace issues as well.

She holds a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling with a specialization in trauma and crisis, and a bachelor’s degree in psychology. Her career includes individual counseling and both inpatient and outpatient hospital work, plus supportive services across clinical settings since 2014.

In sessions she mixes practical methods aimed at immediate concerns with approaches that look at personal values and meaning. That can mean working on specific skills to manage anxiety or depression, and also talking through what matters most now. She frames struggles as responses to difficult situations rather than personal failures.

Therapy with her often involves short-term, goal-focused work alongside conversations about longer term direction. She draws on strategies that help people cope better day to day and make clearer decisions about career or life purpose. Her background in the military informs how she talks about transitions and workplace stress.

Lisa offers scheduled telehealth and in-person office appointments. Before booking, confirm the current session options so you know which formats are available. The process starts with a short questionnaire and scheduling a first session.

How therapeutic approaches and online sessions come together

Lisa commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thought patterns and building practical coping skills for anxiety and depression. These methods are useful for managing day-to-day symptoms and improving mood.

She also works with acceptance and commitment ideas that help people notice their values and take actions that matter to them. That approach can help when someone feels stuck about career choices or life purpose by shifting attention from avoiding discomfort to meaningful steps.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss options and collaborate on which techniques fit your goals, needs, and preferences. Adjustments are made as progress and challenges become clearer.

Lisa offers scheduled telehealth appointments and in-person office sessions; confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel time, and have a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. If you prefer to speak without video, ask about that when you book so you can choose the format that best fits your routine.
