About Lisa
Lisa Leong is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress and anxiety in everyday life. She focuses on steady, practical progress and works with individuals facing worries like workplace stress, low self-esteem, grief, and major life changes. Lisa aims to help people feel more connected to themselves and clearer about the life they want to build.
Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions focus on finding tools that fit each person’s routine and strengths. Lisa stays steady through difficult moments and adjusts methods to what actually helps a person make progress.
Over eight years of practice, she has helped people navigate relationship tensions, communication problems, perfectionism, and identity questions. She uses a mix of therapeutic styles to match what a person needs in the moment rather than relying on one fixed method.
In sessions she combines acceptance-based strategies, cognitive approaches, and client-centered listening to address anxiety, depressive symptoms, and coping with change. Narrative and skills-based techniques are added when they fit the client’s goals.
Lisa holds LCSW and LICSW credentials and is based in Texas. She conducts work in English and focuses on supporting individuals through practical steps, clearer thinking, and better ways to handle stress and emotional strain.

Approach and online therapy options
Lisa often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on actions that match their values. It can help with ongoing anxiety and decisions about life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches practical skills to change reactions and behaviors, which is useful for stress, worry, and mood concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lisa works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's goals and daily life. She will tailor strategies as a person learns what helps and what does not, adjusting the mix of techniques over time.
Confirm current session formats before booking since specific online options are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, whether someone needs shorter check-ins, wants to avoid travel, or prefers not to be on camera. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to practice skills, review homework, and support coping between in-person visits when those visits are possible. Discussing practical needs during the first steps helps determine how to structure sessions to match routines and commitments.
