Lisa Leong, LCSW, LICSW

Lisa Leong is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with eight years of clinical experience based in Texas. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, depression, grief, and codependency concerns among other issues. She speaks English and focuses on steady, practical progress rather than quick fixes.

Her approach emphasizes concrete tools that people can use day to day. Sessions look at what is getting in the way of feeling more grounded and connected to personal values. She uses straightforward techniques to help with people-pleasing, conflict avoidance, and the push-pull of relationship dynamics.

Lisa blends methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. That means she may work on identifying unhelpful thoughts, building emotion regulation skills, and clarifying what matters most to a person. Therapy is collaborative - she helps clients try tools and then adjusts based on what works.

She often helps people navigate life changes such as divorce, caregiving stress, career shifts, and losses. Practical skills for managing anger, grief, or workplace stress are part of the work. For intimacy-related issues and commitment questions, conversations focus on patterns, boundaries, and realistic steps forward.

People who are worn down by caretaking, perfectionism, or chronic people-pleasing tend to find the steady, skills-focused approach useful. Lisa aims to support consistent progress so clients can respond to future challenges with more clarity and choice.
