About Lisa

Dr. Lisa Daniel is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Texas with 20 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, LGBT issues, and parenting among other areas. She commonly works with adults who are managing life changes or facing recurring interpersonal strain.

Her approach is practical and conversational. She uses methods drawn from acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, attachment-based work, and client-centered methods. In sessions she helps people notice what matters to them, practice new ways of responding, and test small changes between meetings.

Dr. Daniel has worked across long-term and shorter-term concerns over two decades. That background informs how she balances skills practice with emotional processing. She often helps people address sleep and eating disruptions, anger and self-esteem struggles, and challenges connected to caregiving or chronic illness.

She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, blended family stress, attachment concerns, and intimacy-related questions. Her experience includes work with compassion fatigue, career strain, ADHD-related difficulties, and people navigating recovery from substance or behavioral addictions.

To get started, readers should be prepared to describe current stressors and goals. The first session typically clarifies what the person most wants to change and how therapy can fit into daily life.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and practice small actions that reflect those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and choices that feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors with practical exercises between meetings. It is often used for anxiety, sleep or eating problems, and mood changes.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on the person’s goals and everyday life. That may mean mixing approaches - for example, pairing skills from DBT with values work from ACT when that feels helpful.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, shorten travel time, and support steady check-ins during difficult periods. It also allows for flexible scheduling that can work around work or caregiving responsibilities. Licensed professionals can use a mix of skill teaching, brief check-ins, and longer emotion-focused sessions to match what a person needs.
