ABOUT ME
I am a licensed clinical social worker in Texas with over 25 years of experience working with people experiencing numerous life stressors, relationship problems, grief and loss, parenting, depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders, as well as personality disorders. I am a combat veteran, former military dependent, and decades of working with active duty and dependents.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Overall rating:

Wallis is always prompt. She is attentive, patient and so helpful!!
Very supportive of my struggles and great to communicate with!
Lisa has been such an amazing therapist! I tried therapy before and didn't feel like I was really addressing the issues I was having. After our introductory session, I had already felt like with her support I was going to get to a better place and I have. Totally recommend!
Lisa is an experienced therapist with heart. She listens and gives practical tools to apply in your daily life. I highly recommend her. The only negative is that 30 minutes is way too short. I feel rushed.
Lisa listens and respods with thoughtful yet challenging questions/points for me to consider. So far so good!
:)
I've tried online therapy a few times and Lisa is the most amazing person I've talked to. She is patient and kind. I'm really thankful for her.
Very attentive, understanding, and interested in exploring different avenues in helping her patients. Offers a great perspective on how to understand, and progress from her patients circumstances.
Lisa is wonderful. She helped me shed light on a tricky blended family situation. Because of her, I've completely changed my approach and am finally feeling like I can tackle this. I cannot thank her enough for the help she's provided me and my family.
