About Lisa
Lisa La Rose is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 20 years of experience. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of Colorado and is working toward a PhD in Psychology. She has taught psychology at a community college and has worked with people from many different backgrounds on a wide range of concerns.
Lisa helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and difficulties with self‑esteem. She also supports those coping with grief, trauma and abuse, life changes, parenting strain, anger, and career questions. Relationship and family concerns are a regular part of her practice and she works with communication and conflict issues.
Her approach is practical and collaborative. She emphasizes small, useful tools that clients can use between sessions. She draws on methods such as cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment‑based perspectives, and client‑centered work to match each person’s needs.
Lisa has experience with first responder issues, caregiver stress, and addiction-related problems including drug and alcohol concerns and behavioral addictions. She also addresses eating and sleep problems, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and codependency and abandonment issues when they appear in therapy.
Outside of work she enjoys hiking, reading, painting, and time with her dog, Luna. She describes counseling as a collaboration where the client is the expert in their life, and she focuses on helping people make practical changes when they feel stuck.
How sessions work
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Lisa commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify their values and take actions that match those values, which can help with anxiety, avoidance, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, useful for depression, anxiety, and habit change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision is reviewed as therapy progresses so the plan can change when needed.
Confirm the exact session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check‑in times when needed, and avoid travel. It also lets clients use techniques and exercises between sessions in their everyday settings. Licensed professionals often use this flexibility to help clients practice new skills in real life and bring those experiences back to the next session for discussion.
