About Lisa

Lisa Guerra is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and life changes. She aims to create space where people can make sense of difficult experiences and take practical steps forward.

Lisa draws on Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide sessions. She listens for the stories people tell about themselves and helps rewrite unhelpful patterns. She also uses the Gottman Method when relationship concerns arise and trauma-focused strategies for those affected by abuse or overwhelming events.

Background and approach

Her background includes seven years of counseling experience and two decades as a paramedic. That combination informs a calm, practical approach to high-stress situations and first responder issues. Lisa pays attention to how daily routines, work demands, and past events shape current feelings.

Sessions typically focus on clear goals and small experiments between meetings. People can expect to talk through what matters, try different ways of coping, and notice what changes. Lisa explains clinical ideas in plain language and keeps next steps simple.

She also supports people dealing with parenting pressures, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment and blending family challenges, codependency and communication problems. Lisa welcomes conversations about career direction, purpose, and compassion fatigue.

Narrative and Practical Tools for Online Therapy

Lisa integrates Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into online work. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps separate the person from the problem so new meanings can be created. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings, and it helps people test new ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about needs, goals, and preferences, then choose strategies that fit. That might mean shifting between narrative reflection and concrete CBT exercises depending on how a client responds.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and deeper work. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier when being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, mood tracking, or working through smaller steps between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life routines.
