About Lisa

Lisa Guerra is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Texas with seven years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, parenting, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, career concerns, depression, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Lisa also lists additional focus areas such as adoption and foster care, attachment issues, blended family issues, codependency, communication problems, and first responder issues.

Her approach is practical and structured. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts, behaviors, and actions. She also draws on the Gottman Method for relationship work and narrative and trauma-focused techniques when they fit the situation.

Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and workable steps. Conversations identify unhelpful thought patterns and habits. Together the client and Lisa try small changes, then check what helps and what needs adjusting.

Lisa’s background includes long experience as a paramedic, which informs her understanding of stress and first responder strains. That clinical and field experience shapes how she talks about coping skills, burnout, and grief.

She asks people to complete a brief questionnaire before scheduling a first session. The site uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time to cover sessions; exact costs vary with location. International clients are not currently accepted, and sessions are offered in English.

How her approaches translate to online work

Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts and routines. CBT focuses on practical exercises and short experiments that can be done between sessions to change reactions and reduce anxiety. The Gottman Method is used for relationship concerns and centers on communication skills, conflict patterns, and rebuilding trust through specific conversations and exercises.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Lisa will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then recommend methods to try. She checks progress and adjusts the plan based on what actually helps the client.

Confirm session formats before booking because the biography does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow a quieter setting without travel, or let someone join from work for a short check-in. For relationship work, sessions that include both partners are often structured differently than individual sessions, and CBT homework can be shared electronically for follow-up. Ask about the available session types when scheduling so arrangements match practical needs.
