Welcome! I'm Lisa Carnicelli, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges and build healthier, more fulfilling lives. I earned my Master of Science in Counseling and Psychological Services, followed by a Certificate of Advanced Study in Counseling and Psychological Services. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of providing counseling in nonprofit, private practice, higher education, and community settings.
I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem challenges, relationship and family issues, parenting concerns, trauma, abuse, life transitions, and personal growth. It has been a true privilege to support people as they discover their strengths, overcome obstacles, and move toward the lives they want to create.
I believe that seeking support is a sign of strength, and everyone deserves a safe, compassionate space to be heard without judgment. My counseling style is warm, collaborative, and personalized to meet your unique needs. While my approach is eclectic, I primarily draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Person-Centered Therapy to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing practical strategies for meaningful, lasting change.
Building a trusting therapeutic relationship is the foundation of my work. Together, we will explore your concerns, identify your strengths, set achievable goals, and develop tools that empower you to move forward with greater confidence, resilience, and well-being.
Whether you're facing a difficult season, working through long-standing challenges, or simply looking to grow into the best version of yourself, I would be honored to support you on your journey. I look forward to getting to know you and partnering with you as you work toward a healthier, more balanced, and fulfilling life. Welcome to BetterHelp!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Lisa has worked wonders for me and my journey to becoming more mentally aware and healthy. She’s great at what she does.
Lisa Carnicelli is an incredible therapist! She uses such a wide variety of techniques, provides insightful psychoeducation, has a great sense of humor, listens with such empathy, goes above and beyond to provide the best care, and has the most beautiful cardigans :) I'm immensely grateful for the person she is and the help she provides. The world could use more Lisa Carnicelli's.
Lisa has honestly changed my life. I’ve been working with her for a year and she’s helped me so, so much. I feel like I’ve been able to grow and mature so much with her support, and I feel like she’s really equipping me with the tools I need to not only navigate my current life right now, but to build emotional resilience, reframe my negative thinking, build my self-esteem, and help me grow from someone who self-sabotaged constantly so someone actually capable of giving and receiving love fully. I really can’t express how grateful I am for Lisa (though god knows I’m out here trying lol). She is so kind, so thoughtful, and the perfect mix of supportive but also firm when she needs to be. I’m so lucky to have her in my life, and will forever be grateful to her and whatever better help algorithm brought her to me.
Lisa has been very helpful in my endeavors to conquering my mental issues developed from trauma from past experiences. So far the therapy has benefitted me greatly.
She’s great

Lisa is kind, wise, open, patient, and so empowering. She has helped me beyond what I thought possible. She is an incredible therapist and will always be deeply deeply appreciated ❤️
Lisa is a phenominal counselor. She's helped me identify and improve numerous issues in my life and I'm looking forward to working with her for a long time.
It hasn’t been that long yet, but the short experience I’ve had w Lisa gives me comfort. I appreciate the way her explanations of certain exercises are catered to me, so that they resonate more. I’m hopeful our work will continue to be productive.
Very helpful!

Lisa is amazing! She always listens, never judges, and truly knows what she is doing. I appreciate her so much!
Lisa is very friendly and kind! I really enjoy working with her and feel she’s helping me quite a bit. Would highly recommend!
I'm really new to this process but it is working well for me so far. Lisa is quick to respond to messages. During video sessions, she gets to the heart of the issues that are challenging me.
Lisa has been so helpful in helping me identify issues I've been to hesitant to work on and redirecting my thoughts to better myself.
