About Lisa
Lisa Guerra is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on parenting concerns and related stress. She listens to what matters most and helps parents find clearer ways to cope. Lisa emphasizes practical steps to reduce anxiety and manage life changes.
She brings seven years of counseling experience and a past career as a paramedic. That background informs her calm, direct approach to intense or sudden stress. She uses methods that look at thoughts and behaviors to help people break unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
Sessions are straightforward and goal-focused. Lisa often combines cognitive behavioral strategies with relationship-focused techniques when relevant. Conversations center on real-life routines, communication habits, and decision points parents face.
She also addresses grief, trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, and work-related stress. Additional areas she supports include adoption and foster care concerns, attachment and blended family issues, and challenges around divorce or separation. Practical problem-solving is a common focus.
Lisa offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to get started and then schedule sessions that fit their timing. Fees vary with location and subscription terms.

Approaches Lisa lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.
Approach-driven online support for parents and stress
Lisa commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT focuses on small, practical shifts that can reduce anxiety and improve mood. She also applies the Gottman Method when relationship patterns or communication are relevant; this approach helps identify interaction habits and build clearer ways to talk and solve problems.Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, daily routines, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which combination of strategies to try and check progress along the way.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy lives. Video lets people read body language and have deeper conversations. Phone works when a call fits better into a break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging offer shorter check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to get consistent help while balancing parenting and work responsibilities.
