About Lisa
Lisa Mulholland is a licensed clinical social worker in New Mexico with 13 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with addictions, relationships, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, and depression. She offers straightforward support for everyday problems and big life changes.
Her sessions focus on building an open, nonjudgmental space where people can speak honestly about their thoughts and feelings. She aims to make goals clear and practical so progress feels real.
Background and approach
Conversations are meant to be direct and useful rather than full of jargon. Lisa often uses techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and from motivational interviewing to spark readiness for change. She also draws on narrative and solution-focused ideas to help people rewrite the stories they tell about themselves and find small, workable steps forward.
She has worked with a wide range of concerns related to life transitions, parenting, grief, and trauma. That includes support for issues such as body image, hoarding, dissociation, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and post-traumatic stress. Veterans and people dealing with aging or pregnancy-related changes are also within her experience.
Her approach blends practical tools and steady support. She encourages clients to set manageable goals and to track small wins. For someone feeling stuck or overwhelmed, she aims to offer clarity, skills, and encouragement toward a healthier everyday life.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Lisa often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT breaks problems into small parts so you can test what works and build new habits. It is helpful for depression, anxiety, and patterns that get in the way of daily life.She also draws on motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change. That method focuses on listening and asking questions that increase motivation rather than giving advice. Narrative therapy is another tool she uses to help people separate themselves from difficult stories and create alternative, more helpful narratives.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they choose methods and adjust them as progress is made so therapy fits the person, not the other way around.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging for flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and teaching practical skills. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are good for brief check-ins, homework prompts, and ongoing encouragement between longer sessions.
