Lisa Leong , LCSW, LICSW

Lisa Leong is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage anxiety, stress, grief, and relationship concerns. She brings a calm, steady presence and focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions. Lisa aims to help clients feel more grounded and connected to the life they want to build.

She uses straightforward tools to address low self-esteem, workplace strain, communication problems, and problems tied to caregiving and compassion fatigue. Sessions often focus on small, measurable changes that fit into everyday life. Lisa works with life transitions, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, and mood concerns including depression and bipolar symptoms.

Her method is collaborative. Lisa listens for strengths and patterns, then suggests strategies such as mindfulness, behavior changes, or thought work that match a person's needs. She keeps therapy practical so people leave with clear next steps and ways to handle setbacks.

With eight years of experience, Lisa draws on several approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, narrative techniques, and client-centered work. She adapts those methods to each individual's goals rather than using a single formula.

Lisa is licensed in Texas as an LCSW and also holds a LICSW. Sessions are offered in English and focus on helping people cope with family stress, parenting challenges, abandonment issues, and career pressures. The tone in her work is respectful, nonjudgmental, and oriented toward steady progress.

How Lisa uses therapy approaches online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes because it emphasizes small actions tied to what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on how thoughts and behaviors interact; it offers concrete techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change patterns that cause trouble. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, offering a respectful space to be heard and to build confidence.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Lisa collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they try strategies, check what helps, and adjust the plan as needed so therapy stays relevant and practical.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, coping tools, or when a shorter touchpoint fits into a busy day. These options aim to make regular care more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
