My name is Lisa Walker. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I have been in the field professionally for over six years. I enjoy utilizing the therapeutic models to include, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I began my career in the field of mental health and human services in 1997 after obtaining my Bachelor Degree. I have found the helping discipline very rewarding over the years. My years of experience of working in the community as a social worker and now as a therapist has provided the opportunity to observe and understand the various dynamics that life offers one from need and challenges to accomplishment and triumph. In my experience in working with diverse populations I am able to genuinely offer sympathy and empathy without compromising the therapeutic relationship. Our society today is in search of helpers who can relate, adapt and show genuine care. It is important for clients to feel safe, respected and understood when addressing their needs. Through my therapeutic approach I provide an environment of freedom and safety without judgement.

I have vast experience working with a wide range of clients. My speciality is relationships, whether it be strengthening them or moving forward post-relationship. As a graduate of NYU’s School of Clinical Social Work, I specialize in psychoanalytic therapies which takes your past experiences (both negative and positive) and relates them to your present day behaviors and relationship patterns. I encourage the use of self-reflection and self-examination. Recognizing recurring patterns can help you to see how you avoid distress or develop defense mechanisms to cope. This insight is the impetus to changing those patterns. My therapy style is laid back and client led. I believe in meeting you where you are with respect and compassion. My style is also eclectic, often incorporating aspects of various treatment approaches. I will encourage you to recognize your positive strengths and attributes in order to develop and incorporate them into your life.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Some commonly asked questions can be found below.

How much does a therapist cost?

Mental health professionals can differ in price. Forbes found that the average cost of in-person therapy in the US is around $100 to $200 per hour. Pricing can also vary based on your location. 

BetterHelp offers payment plans of $60 to $90 per session, charged monthly in a lump sum. You can also take advantage of this pricing on one of BetterHelp's sister platforms, like ReGain for couples or TeenCounseling for teens aged 13 to 19.

Many therapists may be upfront about their pricing and whether or not they take health insurance from the beginning. Additionally, some in your area may offer a sliding scale plan to allow those with lower incomes to pay less for therapy. However, services online can often save individuals a few hundred dollars per month.

How do I know if I should get a therapist?

Mental health services and mental health providers may help you navigate various concerns. You do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy; You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general advice. A counselor may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Mental health issues don't always present as a crisis. Many professionals provide talk therapy and support for life transitions, skills learning, relationship problems, or life coaching. Online therapy sessions in Nevada can allow clients seeking therapy to experience professional help through video, phone, or live chat sessions without commuting to an office.

Does insurance cover therapy?

Different counseling services can vary in cost. Therapists must apply to accept insurance through insurance companies, which may take time and money, so not every therapist offers services through insurance. If you cannot find a therapist that accepts your plan, BetterHelp may be cheaper than visiting an in-person therapist.

Is online therapy safe?

Online therapy through BetterHelp and its sister platforms is safe. Therapists are licensed, experienced, and vetted before being contracted with the platform. If you experience any concerns with your therapist, you change your counselor through the platform or app at any time.
