About Lisa

Lisa La Rose is a Licensed Professional Counselor with two decades of experience helping people navigate hard moments. She earned a Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of Colorado and has been licensed in Colorado as CO LPC 2738. Lisa also teaches psychology at a community college and is pursuing a PhD in Psychology at Northcentral University.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on clear goals and tools to try between appointments. Lisa sees many concerns that affect family life and parenting and offers straightforward strategies for managing stress, anxiety, and changes at home. Her work combines several evidence-informed methods.

Lisa uses cognitive behavioral techniques to shift patterns of thinking and behavior. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to address relationship and family dynamics. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients notice values and take action that matters to them.

Lisa describes the counseling relationship as a collaboration. She meets people where they are and builds on their existing strengths. The approach is compassionate and practical, aimed at helping clients make steady, useful changes.

Outside of clinical work she enjoys Colorado’s outdoors, hiking, painting, and spending time with her dog, Luna. She also travels with her husband and brings a down-to-earth perspective from her life in the region.

Approaches that guide online work and what to expect

Lisa commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small, consistent steps toward those values even when feelings are difficult. ACT often helps with anxiety, life changes, and motivation-related struggles. She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how family and relationship patterns shape reactions and communication, which can be useful for resolving recurring conflicts and improving connection.

Finding the best approach is a shared process. Lisa works with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so the work stays practical and relevant to a client’s daily life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around busy family routines and allow for timely check-ins or skills practice between meetings. The range of formats supports flexible scheduling and multiple ways to stay engaged in the work.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
