About Wallisa
Wallisa Connally is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Texas who uses practical, evidence-based approaches to help people manage stress, relationships, parenting challenges, and mood concerns. She draws on 27 years of experience to offer steady, direct support. Her style is warm and collaborative, focusing on clear steps people can try between sessions.
She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term goals and build on what is already working in a persons life. These methods are used to address anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and issues such as anger, intimacy struggles, and self-esteem. Wallisa brings experience with family and parenting concerns, including blended family issues, adoption and foster care questions, and divorce or separation challenges.
She also addresses communication problems, codependency, and family of origin issues. Her background includes work with veteran and armed forces issues and multicultural concerns. She describes therapy as a partnership that adapts to each persons needs.
Sessions typically include practical strategies, problem-solving, and coaching to help people make manageable changes. Discussions are tailored to specific situations rather than relying on labels. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Her license is TX LCSW 39244. Practical matters like scheduling are handled through an online matching and appointment process.
Online approaches that focus on goals and actions
Wallisa often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT breaks big issues into manageable steps and teaches practical skills for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to create short-term goals and build on what is already helping. This approach is brief and action oriented, useful when someone wants direct, goal-focused work on specific family or parenting concerns.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily life, then tailor methods that fit. That collaboration helps make sessions useful from the start and allows adjustments as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to stay connected from different locations. The variety also gives people choices about how they communicate best during the work of therapy.
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.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
