Lisa Leong

Lisa Leong is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people adjust to major life changes and everyday stress. She offers steady, practical support for anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, and relationship concerns. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth, focused on small, sustainable steps people can use right away.

Her sessions often center on finding tools that fit each person’s life. She helps people tackle workplace stress, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and identity questions. She also supports those coping with family problems, trauma, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue.

Lisa uses a mix of approaches to match a person’s needs. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people accept difficult feelings and clarify values. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy guides a supportive, nonjudgmental space for conversation.

With eight years of experience, Lisa aims for steady progress rather than quick fixes. She pays attention to history, strengths, and the small habits that shape daily life. Sessions are collaborative, with the person and therapist deciding what tools to try next.

Lisa is licensed in Texas as an LCSW and also holds a Washington LICSW. Sessions are offered in English. For people focused on coping with life changes, she emphasizes practical strategies that make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Lisa uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and to clarify the values that guide everyday choices. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, and decisions during life transitions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavior changes that make daily routines easier. CBT can be useful for stress, workplace worries, perfectionism, and managing mood shifts.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Lisa will collaborate with each person to pick approaches and skills that fit their goals and preferences. Sessions are a team effort to test what helps and adjust as needed.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as taking a shorter check-in during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. It can also make it simpler to continue care across moves or schedule changes. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well in online sessions so the practical tools translate to daily life.
