About Lisa

Lisa Turner is a Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in South Carolina with 30 years of experience. She focuses on everyday pressures that affect people - stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, parenting struggles, and self-esteem. She also works with issues related to autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, communication problems, HIV/AIDS, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and money and financial issues.

Her style is straightforward and practical. Sessions generally involve talking through immediate problems, sorting priorities, and trying small, concrete steps that can help day-to-day life. She pays attention to how work, money, health, and family obligations interact and affect mood and behavior.

Clients can expect a clinician who listens and reflects what they say, then helps shape reasonable next steps. Conversations may include problem-solving, practicing clearer ways to ask for what someone needs, and working on confidence and motivation. Sessions are paced to the person’s goals and current life demands.

Lisa’s background spans three decades of social work practice in South Carolina. That experience includes supporting people facing caregiving burdens, serious medical issues, and complicated family dynamics. She brings that practical experience to sessions so people can try approaches that fit their routines.

If someone is unsure how to begin, she guides them through the first scheduling steps and the initial paperwork. The early meetings focus on immediate concerns and on setting realistic goals for what to work on next.

BHow sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Lisa draws on well-established, evidence-based techniques that focus on practical skills and problem solving. One approach emphasizes behavioral strategies - identifying small actions to change patterns, setting manageable goals, and tracking progress to reduce anxiety and increase functioning. Another common method is communication-focused work, which teaches clearer ways to express needs and to handle difficult conversations, useful for relationship and family strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa treats the choice of methods as collaborative; she and the client review what feels helpful and adjust methods as they learn what works. The early sessions are used to assess needs and try approaches for a few weeks to see what fits the person’s life and goals.

The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and avoiding long travel times. Online work can make it easier to check in during a lunch break, keep appointments when transportation is difficult, or have shorter check-ins when time is tight. Confirm current session options before booking to learn which formats are available.
