About Wallisa

Wallisa Connally is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with 27 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and codependency-related concerns. Her background includes extensive work with military service members and families, as well as experience supporting people through grief, anger, and life transitions.

Wallisa uses practical, talk-based methods drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches and solution-focused techniques. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, testing different behaviors, and finding small, doable steps forward. She blends these tools with attention to life context, including family of origin and multicultural factors.

Clients can expect direct conversation about problems and realistic strategies to change them. She offers coaching-style support when helpful, including work on communication, boundaries, and handling compassion fatigue. Work on intimacy-related issues, dependent patterns, jealousy, and infidelity centers on clarifying needs and practicing new ways of responding.

Her military background informs her understanding of veteran and armed forces issues. She also brings experience with adoption, foster care, blended family dynamics, and divorce or separation. Wallisa aims to reduce isolation and help people rebuild a sense of agency after difficult relationship patterns.

Sessions use approaches that encourage steady progress over time. People who want focused, practical conversation about relationships, emotion regulation, and life changes may find her style fits their needs.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Wallisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to name and test thoughts and behaviors that keep problems running. CBT focuses on practical exercises and short-term changes, which can help with anxiety, depression, and relationship patterns. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on what is already working and building on small steps toward clear goals. It is useful when someone wants focused action on specific problems.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. She will help clients identify goals and choose methods that fit those goals. That lets sessions focus on what the person wants to change and how they prefer to work, rather than following one fixed method.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online work makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. Online sessions can also make it simpler to continue care when life changes or when someone is living outside the therapist's region. Licensed professionals adapt CBT and solution-focused techniques to the online setting so practical exercises and homework still move progress forward.
