About Lisa

Lisa Grady is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 15 years of experience. She works with adults who struggle with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. Her practice also addresses codependency and related issues such as attachment concerns, abandonment, and isolation.

She began her career in substance use counseling and worked extensively with people who were incarcerated. That work included supporting women with co-occurring disorders and later men in correctional settings, helping clients learn practical skills for daily life. Group counseling has been a consistent part of her approach alongside individual sessions.

Grady has experience with competency restoration and with people on probation and parole, which gave her familiarity with legal and system-related issues. She has also worked with trauma-informed care and with military-connected individuals.

In session she focuses on straightforward skill-building and practical problem solving. She talks with clients about patterns that get in the way, such as people-pleasing, control problems, and communication difficulties. She helps people notice how old habits show up now and practice different ways of responding.

Her background includes work in correctional facilities and community settings, including group leadership and individual counseling. People who contact her will find someone experienced with addiction, family stress, and the ripple effects of trauma.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Evidence-based techniques often used for addiction and trauma focus on building concrete skills and changing unhelpful patterns. One common approach teaches specific coping strategies and behavioral skills to manage cravings, stress, and strong emotions; this helps with addictions, anger, and anxiety by giving clear steps to practice between sessions. Another approach centers on trauma-informed care and safety planning, helping people recognize how past hurt affects current behavior and try new, manageable ways to respond.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and daily realities, then suggest methods to try. Together you and the therapist will adjust techniques based on what works and what feels doable in your life.

Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when life is chaotic. It can also let someone participate without needing to be on camera for the whole session or choose a quicker phone check-in when bandwidth is limited. Ask about available formats and how they can fit into your routine before scheduling.
