Summary

A private-practice Marriage and Family Therapist based out of Los Angeles County, Lisa Ann Sisson possesses more than a decade of experience helping individuals and families improve their lives by confronting complex issues. Using the tools found in solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), Lisa Ann Sisson helps her patients find reasonable answers in a relatively short timeframe. Simply put, Ms. Sisson encourages her patients to focus on solutions, rather than problems. Much of the success of SFBT is attained by capitalizing on what can be learned from intervals in life when the problem at hand is less severe or nonexistent. A progressive treatment option, SFBT has been in development for over three decades and continues to grow as professionals like Ms. Sisson adapt the methods to real-world experiences. Currently working on Roadside Drive in Agoura Hills, Lisa Ann Sisson is also available to those who stand to benefit from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Employing this approach when necessary, Ms. Sisson helps clients understand how the way they think about things in life produces a profound affect on emotional stability. CBT is established as an accepted form of counseling for those who seek to overcome dysfunctional emotions through a goal-oriented approach to problem solving. Concerned with the betterment of individuals and communities in her personal life as well, Lisa Ann Sisson is involved with multiple faith-based organizations. A partner with Joyce Meyer Ministries, Ms. Sisson uses her resources and professional strengths to assist people and communities as they seek to work through painful circumstances. A nonprofit Christian organization, Joyce Meyer Ministries provides humanitarian services across the globe as it simultaneously helps people build their faith. Ms. Sisson is also a partner with InTouch Ministries, a multifaceted organization founded by Dr. Charles Stanley that focuses its resources on sharing a message of faith through broadcasts, magazines, book clubs and prayer groups. Ms. Sisson is licensed by the California Board of Behavioral Scientists and is a member of the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists.
