About Lisa
Lisa Rosario is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 25 years of experience based in New York. She is bilingual in English and Spanish and brings a long history of clinical work to conversations about stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, trauma, and life transitions. She describes a collaborative first session that begins with questions about current struggles and history.
Lisa asks about symptoms, relationships, strengths, and goals to build a practical plan together.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear steps you can use between meetings. Her approach draws on systemic perspectives and evidence-informed therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered methods. She aims to understand patterns in relationships and daily life, and then help people try different ways of responding to old problems.
Over the years she has worked across many settings and with people facing a wide range of concerns including ADHD symptoms, trauma, addiction-related struggles, chronic pain and illness, caregiving stress, and issues around identity and intimacy. She also teaches social work at the college level and is moving toward doctoral study.
Luis highlights straightforward communication and practical planning as central parts of therapy. She invites questions at any point and works with each person to choose methods that match their goals and pace. If that sounds useful, she suggests a short introductory conversation to see if it feels like the right fit.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Systemic-informed work looks at patterns between people and across life areas, helping clients see how routines and relationships affect their problems and what small changes might shift those patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and learning practical skills to live alongside difficult thoughts and feelings instead of getting stuck by them. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation where the therapist follows the client’s lead and supports their own problem-solving.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lisa will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Then she will suggest one or more methods and adjust them over time so the plan fits the client’s needs and pace.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging supports brief check-ins, written reflection, or ongoing coaching between calls. These formats make it easier to access therapy from different locations and to fit sessions around work, school, or caregiving duties.
