About Lisa

Lisa Pepper-Satkin is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who brings three decades of experience to people facing stress, anxiety, relationship shifts, grief, and life transitions. She combines psychotherapy and coaching to help clients set clear goals, break down barriers, and take practical steps toward change. Lisa often works with concerns around communication, control, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and questions of life purpose and self-love. She also focuses on women's issues and supporting people as they navigate those challenges.

Clients can expect a direct but compassionate style that emphasizes accountability and creative problem solving. Lisa helps people name priorities, try new strategies, and track progress in concrete ways. Sessions are focused on what matters now and what realistic next steps will make a difference.

Her background includes psychotherapy, entrepreneurship, and leadership development. She also teaches workshops and runs retreats that mix psychology, creativity, and coaching tools to support growth and teamwork. These group experiences are designed to spark insight and practical change.

In other settings Lisa has worked with leaders and entrepreneurs, bringing practical organization and intuition to help people move forward. She invites clients to explore their strengths, experiment with new behaviors, and build more satisfying patterns over time.

Approaches That Guide Online Work

Lisa integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques with an executive coaching frame to help people clarify goals and take action. One common approach she uses focuses on practical goal-setting and accountability, helping clients break large goals into concrete steps and track progress over time. This style is useful for life transitions, work stress, and getting unstuck.

Another central approach combines grief-informed psychotherapy with coping skills for handling loss and change. That work emphasizes acknowledging emotions, building day-to-day routines, and finding ways to move forward while honoring what was lost. It suits people navigating separation, major life shifts, or complicated grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and Lisa works collaboratively to choose techniques that fit each person's needs, goals, and preferences. She invites clients to try methods, review what helps, and adjust the plan together rather than committing to a single path at the start.

The practical benefits of online work can include easier scheduling, reduced travel time, and the ability to fit sessions into busy days. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking to learn whether phone or video sessions are offered. Online sessions can make it simpler to attend workshops or follow-up meetings while balancing work and family demands.
