About Lisa
Lisa Kennedy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 19 years of practice experience in Arkansas. She sees adults who are managing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, and life transitions. Her work also covers anger, self-esteem, career concerns, and depression. She lists blended family issues among her additional focuses.
Her background includes work in geropsychology, hospice, and inpatient psychiatry. She has experience supporting survivors of domestic violence and people alleged to have caused harm, and she has worked with military-connected adults and children. She is also trained as a Forensic Child Interviewer and has knowledge of personality and mood disorders.
In practice she describes herself as a behavioral therapist who primarily uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with mindfulness, solution-focused methods, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic ideas. Sessions often involve talking through patterns of thought and behavior, practicing new skills, and setting small achievable goals. Mindfulness techniques are introduced to help with stress and anxiety.
She currently works full time in private practice and indicates regular response to messages five days a week. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. For people in blended households she can help with step-parenting stress, co-parenting strain, and loyalty conflicts while keeping the focus on individual coping and communication.

Approaches used and how online sessions fit
Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into manageable steps.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy ideas, which focus on listening and responding to each person’s perspective. That approach supports building trust and deciding goals together. Mindfulness techniques are offered to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and help with worry.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the person about symptoms, goals, and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit. Plans can be adjusted over time if something does not feel helpful.
Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not specify formats. Online work can make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into a busy day. It can reduce travel, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to keep regular appointments while managing family and work commitments.
