About Lisa
Lisa Grady is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of experience. She helps people who are carrying stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma, anger, depression, and feelings of guilt and shame. She works with adults who are trying to manage difficult emotions or past events that keep showing up in daily life.
Her early work focused on substance use counseling and supporting people who were incarcerated. She has experience with competency restoration and working with probation and parole populations, which gave her a practical understanding of legal and supervised settings. That background also included leading group counseling alongside individual sessions.
Over time she shifted to serving people in the local community, including work with men and with individuals connected to the military. She has provided trauma-informed care and supported people facing co-occurring mental health and substance concerns. She often draws on skills developed in correctional and community settings when helping people manage overwhelming emotions.
In sessions she uses both individual and group formats as part of her work history. Her approach emphasizes practical skill-building, talking through patterns that keep people stuck, and setting manageable steps for change. She pays attention to how relationships, family roles, and past losses can feed guilt and shame.
People who come to her can expect straightforward conversation about coping strategies, relapse prevention for substance issues, and ways to address anger, isolation, or attachment concerns. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session are used to set goals and plan ongoing work.
Therapeutic approaches used in remote work
Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills and processing difficult experiences. One common element is skill-building for emotional regulation and relapse prevention, which helps people manage urges, reduce impulsivity, and navigate triggers related to addiction or anger.Another approach involves trauma-informed methods that attend to how past harm affects current behavior and relationships. This work usually includes gentle pacing, grounding strategies, and reviewing patterns that link past events to present guilt or shame.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with clients to identify what fits best for their needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation typically happens during the first sessions and is revisited as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm which online formats are offered before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Therapists also find remote sessions helpful for maintaining consistency when life gets disrupted, while still focusing on concrete skills and steady progress.
