Health-focused therapist blending CBT and motivation

About Lisa

Dr. Lisa Page is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) in Illinois with 15 years of clinical experience and a doctorate in psychology from the Colorado School of Professional Psychology.

Background and approach

She brings a health psychology perspective to care and emphasizes goal-oriented work using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Motivational Interviewing to support change in areas such as anxiety, depression, sleep, addictions, and lifestyle-related concerns.

Her training and ongoing pursuit of diplomate credentials in lifestyle medicine and behavioral sleep medicine reflect a continued focus on integrating healthy sleep, stress management, nutrition, movement, social balance, and reduction of risky behaviors into treatment. Her style blends empathy with directness when needed, aiming to help people move past resistance and make sustainable progress toward their goals.

Typical concerns addressed include stress, self-esteem, grief, career and coaching needs, eating and body image issues, and compassion fatigue, along with additional foci such as adoption and foster care, blended family issues, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, and substance-related problems.

She seeks to tailor each intervention to the individual, creating an experience that is practical, strengths-based, and oriented toward measurable improvement.

Approach-Focused Online Care for Lifestyle and Behavior Change

Dr. Lisa Page commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing into online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and lifestyle changes. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, client-centered method that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their motivation to change, which can be useful for substance-related concerns, habit change, and overcoming resistance.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and will be addressed collaboratively. The therapist works with each person to clarify goals, weigh options, and select interventions that match needs, values, and preferences so the plan feels practical and achievable.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility in how and when clients connect. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity when life is unpredictable, and access licensed professionals from different locations within Illinois. The variety of formats supports ongoing work on sleep, stress management, recovery, and other lifestyle-focused goals.
