About Lisa
Lisa Daly is a licensed clinical social worker in Missouri (LCSW) and holds a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker credential in Kansas (LSCSW). She has 19 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, and challenges with intimacy and parenting.
She uses a client-centered stance and listens first. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and offers options to consider. If a needed approach is outside her scope, she will suggest a referral to someone with that expertise.
In sessions she often draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at attachment and emotion-driven patterns. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused work to identify practical steps and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Lisa favors shorter-term work when that fits the client's goals. She encourages clearer communication and attention to self-esteem as tools for managing mood and relationship problems. She will check in about progress and adjust the approach if people are not getting what they need.
Her background includes many years supporting people with OCD, midlife concerns, aging and caregiver stress, faith-related struggles, and seasonal mood changes. She helps people talk through strong emotions and figure out manageable next steps.
Sessions are offered in English and are provided from her Missouri practice. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches shape online work
Lisa frequently combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy depending on your needs. EFT focuses on recognizing and naming emotions and attachment patterns, which can help when relationship patterns or hard-to-name feelings are central. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaborating so the person leads the pace and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and helps develop concrete strategies for managing anxiety, mood, or compulsions.Finding the right approach is collaborative. She will talk with the client about goals and preferences and try methods that fit those aims. If a particular approach is not working, she will adjust the plan and discuss referrals when a different skill set is needed.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy life - they can reduce travel time and make it easier to schedule brief check-ins during a workday. Phone sessions can be useful when lower bandwidth or no camera is preferred, while video sessions let the therapist and client use facial expression and tone to address emotional material. These practical benefits can make it easier to keep therapy consistent while you manage everyday responsibilities.
