Lisa La Rose, LPC

Lisa La Rose is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with two decades of clinical experience helping people navigate anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of Colorado and is currently pursuing a PhD in Psychology at Northcentral University. In addition to clinical work, she teaches psychology classes at a community college, bringing both academic insight and practical experience to her practice.

Known for a compassionate yet practical style, Lisa meets clients where they are and focuses on identifying personal strengths to support meaningful change. Her work emphasizes collaboration - she treats clients as the experts in their own lives while offering research-informed tools to use between sessions, so progress continues outside of scheduled appointments. She draws from an array of evidence-based methods to tailor care to each person’s goals and preferences.

Lisa is a Colorado native who enjoys spending time outdoors, hiking, reading, painting, and taking walks with her dog, Luna. She also travels with her husband when possible. Whether addressing habit change, substance use, first responder stress, communication and assertiveness, or challenges with self-esteem and intimacy, Lisa focuses on practical strategies and compassionate support to help clients move forward.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Lisa integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into her work to help clients clarify personal values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise - this approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, and persistent avoidance. She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotional responses, supporting clients who struggle with intimacy, abandonment issues, or relationship difficulties. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another frequent tool in her practice - it focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to ease symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lisa collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques over time so the work feels relevant and personally meaningful.

Online therapy with Lisa is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. These remote options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or on the go while maintaining consistent care and practical support between sessions.
