About Lisa
Dr. Lisa Daniel is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 20 years of experience. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma, grief, depression and related concerns.
Her tone is calm and direct, and she aims to help people take concrete steps toward feeling better. In sessions she listens carefully and adapts the conversation to each person’s needs. She combines body-aware somatic ideas with talk-based methods to help people notice how emotions show up in the body and in daily habits.
Background and approach
She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools to reshape unhelpful thoughts and actions. Clients can expect a down-to-earth approach that blends reflection with small, manageable practices. Dr.
Daniel works to create clear goals and simple strategies clients can use between meetings. She stresses respect, sensitivity, and practical problem solving rather than theory-heavy explanations. Her background includes two decades of work across many concerns from addictions and bipolar issues to parenting strain, caregiver stress, body-image and intimacy-related difficulties.
That breadth gives her experience helping people with layered problems and co-occurring challenges. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, chat, or text messaging. The process begins by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the client’s needs.
How somatic and evidence-based approaches work online
Somatic ideas focus on how feelings appear in the body. In online sessions this can mean guided attention to breath, posture, or simple movement to notice tension and release it. These techniques can help with anxiety, trauma reactions, and stress by making sensations easier to name and manage.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people how to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking values-guided action. It pairs well with somatic work when people want both emotional awareness and practical steps to change behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people try new ways of relating that feel safer and more reliable.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try techniques together to see what fits. This is a collaborative process that adapts as needs change.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats give flexibility for busy schedules, allow follow-up between sessions, and make it possible to work from home or other convenient locations. Licensed professionals can use these tools to deliver the same thoughtful care as in-person work while fitting therapy into everyday life.
