About Lisa

Lisa La Rose is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 20 years of clinical experience. She holds a Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of Colorado and is working toward a PhD in Psychology at Northcentral University. She has taught psychology at a community college and brings years of practice with people facing many kinds of struggles.

She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, trauma and abuse, and difficulties with self-esteem. She also supports those coping with life transitions, career strain, parenting stress, and issues related to eating, sleeping, and intimacy. First responder concerns and compassion fatigue are among the areas she has worked with over time.

Her approach combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy with other evidence-based methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside attachment-informed and client-centered ways of working. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, naming emotions, and practicing skills between meetings.

Lisa favors practical tools that can be used right away. She asks about strengths and what has worked before, then helps people try new responses and notice the effects. Conversations are collaborative and goal-oriented, with homework and real-world practice often part of the plan.

Outside of work she enjoys hiking, painting, reading, and time with her husband and dog, Luna. She lives in Colorado and conducts her practice in English.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on recognizing and naming emotions and understanding how those feelings shape patterns. EFT helps people notice reactions that repeat and practice different, more helpful ways of responding. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) uses values and practical exercises to help people accept difficult feelings while taking steps toward what matters. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and making life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to early relationship patterns and how they affect current connections and self-understanding; it can help with trust, closeness, and managing strong emotional responses.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the concerns bringing someone to therapy. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also allow someone to join from a quieter place, reduce the need to be on camera, or schedule sessions during a lunch break. Licensed professionals generally work with clients to find pacing and structure that fit everyday life.
