About Lisa

Lisa Guerra is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Texas with seven years of experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationships, parenting, grief, life changes, career questions, and issues around meaning and life purpose. Her work also covers trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Lisa uses straightforward, conversational therapy. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and actions, and she uses the Gottman Method for couples work. She respects practical steps and clear goals in sessions rather than vague promises.

In sessions she talks through what's happening now and what you want to change. She helps clients break problems into manageable steps and test small changes between meetings. When trauma or abuse is part of the story, she uses trauma-focused approaches to address those experiences carefully.

Her background includes long experience as a paramedic, which informs her understanding of first responder issues and crisis signs. She also works with adoption and foster care concerns, aging and geriatric issues, attachment and blended family challenges, and communication or codependency problems.

People often come to ask about parenting strain, career uncertainty, or a sense of being stuck after a life change. Lisa helps people sort priorities, experiment with different choices, and notice what shifts in day-to-day life. To begin, readers should confirm current session options before booking and follow the practice's intake steps.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors. CBT focuses on small, practical changes in thinking and action, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.

She also uses the Gottman Method to address relationship patterns and communication. This approach looks at interaction habits and teaches skills for clearer communication and managing conflict in partnerships.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Lisa will discuss the approaches above and other options in early sessions and decide together what fits a person's goals and preferences. That collaborative decision guides how the sessions proceed.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, since the profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from different locations. Talk with Lisa during intake about pacing, session length, and whether video or other formats would work better for your schedule.
