Lisa Alberty

Lisa Alberty is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in New York. She is bilingual in English and Spanish and brings eight years of professional experience to her work. Lisa focuses on helping people who are struggling with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and self-esteem concerns.

Lisa approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She builds a plan together with the person in front of her, tailoring conversations and strategies to meet real-life needs. Sessions are aimed at practical steps people can use between meetings.

Her background includes work with attachment issues, communication problems, codependency, and family of origin concerns. She also addresses body image, dissociation, control issues, and the emotional fallout of divorce or separation. First responder stress, impulsivity, and feelings of emptiness are other areas she helps people name and manage.

Lisa uses several therapeutic tools in her work. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Cognitive behavioral techniques help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are used to build awareness and to support small, steady change.

People who choose Lisa can expect a collaborative, down-to-earth approach. She focuses on practical problem solving and emotional understanding. Her bilingual ability means sessions can be held in English or Spanish for those who prefer either language.

How Lisa’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can turn those patterns into clear goals to change how someone connects and responds. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with practical alternatives. CBT is often used for anger, anxiety, and low mood by breaking problems into smaller, manageable steps. Mindfulness Therapy teaches noticing thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them, which can be useful for impulsivity, anger, and grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. She adjusts the plan over time based on what is helping and what is not, and she explains options in straightforward language.

Confirm available session options before booking to be sure they match your needs. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes it possible to continue work with a bilingual therapist in English or Spanish without rearranging other parts of life.
