About Lisa
Lisa Fehr is an Iowa licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, coping with life changes, and focus challenges such as ADHD. Lisa speaks English and practices in Iowa.
She centers sessions on the person's own strengths and perspective. Sessions typically begin by identifying immediate concerns and practical goals. Lisa uses straightforward techniques to notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors rather than long theoretical discussions.
Lisa combines approaches to make work concrete. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and challenge thinking patterns that feed anxiety or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy shapes the conversation around what the client says matters most. Mindfulness practices are introduced when lowering stress or improving attention is helpful.
Sessions include learning and practicing simple skills for relaxation, stress management, and impulse control. She also uses solution-focused steps to set small, achievable goals and track progress. These are short, concrete tasks meant to fit into everyday life.
People who prefer a practical, structured approach may find this style useful. Lisa explains techniques in plain language and focuses on what to try between sessions. To begin, clients use the site's matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to see if the approach fits their situation.
How Lisa’s approaches are used in online sessions
Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT work online typically involves tracking thoughts, trying small behavior changes, and reviewing what worked between sessions.Client-Centered Therapy frames sessions around what the person says matters most. The therapist follows the client’s concerns and reflects their priorities so goals emerge from the conversation.
Mindfulness Therapy focuses on simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve focus. These exercises can be short and repeated daily to support mood and concentration.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Lisa will work collaboratively to choose which approaches fit a client’s needs and goals. She adjusts the plan based on what the client prefers and what shows practical benefit during sessions.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Ask which session types are offered when scheduling. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so skills can be practiced in everyday routines.
