About me
Hello!
I am a clinical social worker with 17 years of experience, including work in major hospital systems in New York City, Houston, and New Jersey, and the past three years supporting BetterHelp subscribers. My focus has been helping people bring calm, clarity, and resolution to complex and emotional situations.
I have worked with hundreds of individuals and families navigating stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and major life changes. My approach combines attentive listening with practical tools, so clients feel supported while building skills to manage difficulties and move toward healthier outcomes.
Travel has also shaped my perspective — from Beijing and Hong Kong to Paris, London, and across North America. I enjoy learning about different cultures and histories, which deepens my ability to connect with people from diverse backgrounds.
At the core of my work is a passion for helping people find steadiness in the midst of change, discover new perspectives, and feel more confident in themselves and their relationships.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Lisa Leong. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Lisa is a God-sent!!! I cannot say enough good things about Lisa and how much she has helped our marriage! Thank you Lisa for your amazing dedication to your patients!
Lisa is wonderful. My wife and I have been so pleased with her connection to us and the homework is always reinforcing our session discussions! I plan to recommend her to anyone who would like to gain more knowledge about their partner to improve relationship communication. She has helped us in so many ways!
Really nice and helpful- very knowledgeable and respectful
Lisa has been great and look foward to her sessions. She makes both people feel heard and valued.
Working with Lisa has been a transformative experience for our relationship. From the very first session, she created a safe, judgment-free space where we could each feel heard, understood, and supported. Her thoughtful questions, gentle guidance, and practical tools helped us communicate more openly, break long-standing patterns, and reconnect on a much deeper level.
What we appreciate most is her ability to hold space for both of us equally, helping us each grow individually while strengthening our partnership. Therapy with Lisa doesn’t feel clinical—it feels human, compassionate, and incredibly constructive.
Great therapist ! Highly recommended
She does a great job of listening intently, responding respectfully and including both parties.
My wife and I both enjoy our sessions with Lisa
Very friendly
We have had weekly sessions with Lisa for 2 months now and have found her to be very intentional and thorough in her technique and communications. She has made a lot of effort to make herself available for sessions which suit our needs and is very much contactable in the time between. She listens attentively and gives interesting and thought out responses and suggestions of things to try. We have seen a noticeable difference in the way we communicate in our relationship since we’ve started the sessions and have found our time with Lisa very helpful.
Lisa is a wonderful therapist and has been a wonderful mediator and counselor for our marriage. She is really helping us through some hard times. She is an attentive listener and really understands our feelings.
I really appreciate Lisa response time to any issues I am having. I really feel she's attentive to my problems.
Lisa is a wonderful therapist. Is really helping us get through some hard times!
We've only had one session, but we've been intentional with it, and I'm grateful for the responsiveness of Lisa.
