About Lisa
Lisa Peter helps people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or relationship strain. She works with adults who are dealing with mood struggles, self-esteem problems, or the fallout from trauma and abuse. Lisa uses clear, practical steps so people can make small changes that add up.
Her sessions focus on teaching skills for handling panic, obsessive thoughts, social anxiety, and workplace stress. She also supports people facing separation, attachment wounds, or feelings of isolation and loneliness.
How Lisa works
Conversations are direct and user-friendly, aimed at making everyday life easier. Lisa combines two main approaches in her work: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which builds emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. She blends these methods to match each person’s situation and goals.
She holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential and is also a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner. Lisa has four years of clinical experience and practices in Texas. Sessions are offered in English and structured to fit busy schedules.
People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions that fit their availability. Therapy is practical and collaborative, with an emphasis on improving communication, reducing panic or obsessive symptoms, and strengthening self-compassion over time.

Online support options
Practical approaches for online therapy and skills building
Lisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT involves breaking down worries and testing them with small, manageable experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach concrete skills for regulating strong emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication. DBT exercises focus on grounding techniques, emotion regulation, and clearer interpersonal boundaries.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lisa will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and daily life, then recommend a blend of methods. The plan is shaped together and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face-to-face when schedules allow. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging make it easier to fit brief sessions into a busy day and to get ongoing support between appointments. These formats aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to use alongside everyday commitments.
