About Lisa

Lisa La Rose is a Licensed Professional Counselor with two decades of clinical experience. She earned a Master of Arts degree in Counseling from the University of Colorado and has been practicing since 2001. Lisa also teaches psychology at a community college and is working toward a PhD in Psychology at Northcentral University.

She prefers a straightforward, compassionate style. Lisa meets people where they are and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on practical tools clients can use between meetings to make change happen sooner.

Lisa helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports those facing trauma, grief, addictions, and habit change. Sleep and eating concerns appear among the issues she addresses as part of broader life challenges.

Her work often involves relationship and communication problems, caregiver strain, first responder stress, and career-related worries. Lisa describes counseling as a collaboration where the client is the expert on their life and the counselor offers guidance and techniques.

In sessions she draws on approaches that emphasize thoughts, behavior, values, and emotion regulation. Clients can expect a mix of skill-building, problem solving, and attention to what matters most to them. Outside the office she enjoys hiking, painting, reading, and spending time with her dog, Luna.

Lisa appreciates the courage it takes to seek help and aims to make the process clear and practical. She encourages prospective clients to consider whether her down-to-earth style and focus on tools and values fit their needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online care options

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small committed steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation to change old habits.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches concrete skills for shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and behavior change work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Lisa will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. This often means combining ideas from different approaches and adjusting over time based on what helps most.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to continue work during life transitions or while traveling, while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
