About Lisa

Lisa Leong is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She offers steady, practical support and focuses on tools that fit each person's life. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth, aimed at small, manageable steps forward.

She uses an approach that balances talking through problems with learning everyday skills. Sessions center on what is useful now - coping strategies, clearer communication, and ways to handle strong emotions.

02

How Lisa works

She helps people work through grief, burnout, and relationship challenges using methods that suit their needs. With eight years of experience, Lisa draws on several evidence-based approaches to shape treatment. She adapts methods like acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive techniques, and client-centered listening to the person in front of her.

That mix helps when worries feel stuck or when patterns keep repeating. Lisa works with concerns that include parenting strain, career stress, compassion fatigue, and issues tied to attachment or abandonment. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, bipolar mood challenges, and anger or control issues.

Her work addresses the practical effects of these problems on daily life. The first sessions focus on understanding what matters most and setting achievable goals. From there she helps people practice new ways of coping and communicating so progress lasts.

Lisa practices in Texas and provides therapy in English.

Online support options

Approaches that guide online sessions

Lisa uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. This approach can help with anxiety, avoidance, and major life changes.

She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. CBT is practical for managing worry, depression, and stress at work or home.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lisa will discuss goals and preferences and adjust methods so therapy fits the client's needs. That collaborative planning helps create clearer steps forward and keeps sessions relevant.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and exercises, while phone calls use less bandwidth and can fit around a busy schedule. Live chat or messaging supports brief check-ins, homework, and ongoing skill practice between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
