Lisa Hrycushko, LPC - Therapist in Texas

About Lisa

Lisa Hrycushko is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. She brings a practical, empathic style to sessions and focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside a broad range of life stressors. Lisa helps people who are facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, or major life changes.

Sessions are centered on real problems and everyday coping skills. Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Texas A&M University and a Master of Science in Counseling from the University of North Texas.

Background and approach

She has eight years of professional experience working in independent practice and university settings with adult clients. That experience has included supporting people through mood disorders, addictions, trauma, and caregiving stress. In sessions she uses straightforward methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to change patterns of thinking and reduce stress.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to keep work practical and goal-oriented. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want help finding their own motivation for change. Her style is warm and collaborative.

She listens first, then helps set clear, achievable goals. Parents and families can expect help with communication, blended family issues, parenting stress, and improving daily routines. Lisa focuses on building skills that fit into busy lives.

She guides clients to small changes that can make routines steadier, moods more manageable, and relationships clearer.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-Centered Therapy starts with listening. It focuses on the person’s experience and builds a trusting relationship to support growth and clearer decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood, using practical exercises and real-life practice. Mindfulness Therapy brings simple awareness exercises into sessions to help manage stress and stay present during parenting or relationship challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying tools, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than assuming one method will be best from the start.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and for parents managing childcare or work. They also make it easier to follow up between sessions and practice new skills in everyday life, while keeping appointments accessible across different parts of Texas.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
