About Lisa

Lisa Mulholland is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience helping people manage addiction, relationship strain, trauma and parenting concerns. She works in New Mexico and offers supportive, down-to-earth care for people trying to make meaningful changes. Sessions aim to be straightforward and respectful, so people can talk about what matters without feeling judged.

She uses a mix of practical methods to meet people where they are.

Background and approach

That includes Systemic Therapy to look at patterns between people, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and Motivational Interviewing to build motivation for change. She also draws on Narrative and Solution-Focused approaches when those fit the situation. In sessions the focus is on clear goals and small steps.

Lisa will help identify what is causing distress and try different strategies to reduce it. Conversations tend to be collaborative and paced to what each person can handle. Her background includes both clinical and coaching work with professionals, which informs a pragmatic style.

People often leave sessions with one or two tangible actions to try between meetings. She aims to empower clients to gradually regain control over mood, relationships, and daily routines. Lisa conducts sessions in English and provides therapy through several online formats.

She invites prospective clients to consider what they want to change and to start by completing the initial matching questionnaire to set up a first appointment.

Online support

How these approaches work online

Systemic Therapy looks at patterns between people and how those patterns affect daily life. It can help when relationship dynamics or family roles contribute to stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing small changes to reduce symptoms. Motivational Interviewing is a short, client-centered method that helps clarify what matters most and builds the drive to take steps toward change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time so the plan stays useful and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging can support brief check-ins, ongoing accountability, or a flexible way to process between longer sessions. These options allow people to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, and travel.
