About Lisa

Lisa Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 12 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, anger, depression, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, and parenting concerns. She also addresses self-esteem, career questions, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Williams uses a mix of approaches in conversation rather than a one-size-fits-all method. She draws on client-centered therapy to keep discussions focused on the person's priorities. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

Her practice includes work on issues such as abandonment, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, control issues, and coping after disasters. She brings experience helping people affected by divorce, domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, and serious illness like cancer. Shame, guilt, impulsivity, and feelings of emptiness are also named concerns she addresses.

Sessions emphasize clear, practical conversation and goals you can try between meetings. She adapts the dialogue and plan to what each person says they need. The approach aims to make everyday steps feel manageable after a major change in work, relationships, health, or family roles.

Language of service is English and practice is based in Texas. Because session formats are not listed in the biography, people should confirm current online and in-person options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy keeps the focus on what matters most to the person. In online sessions this means conversations shaped by the client's priorities, with the therapist reflecting and asking questions to clarify goals and options.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete exercises. Online CBT often uses short between-session tasks and clear agendas so people can practice new ways of thinking between meetings. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) brings skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that can be taught in short, practical steps useful after big life changes.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best given the person's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can shift as progress is made or circumstances change.

The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into workdays, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins that extend learning between meetings. Licensed professionals can use this flexibility to pair skills practice with real-world routines without promising a specific format.
