About Lisa

Lisa Holder is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years of experience. She works from Colorado and focuses on practical steps people can use to feel better. Her work often centers on stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, depression, and self esteem.

She listens for the ways past hurts or current pressures keep people stuck. Then she helps clients learn concrete coping skills and healthier ways of relating to others. Sessions emphasize building on existing strengths and finding hope, even after difficult experiences.

Clients may bring problems like panic attacks, recurring guilt or shame, or struggles with attachment and abandonment. Lisa also addresses caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, and the emotional fallout from divorce or financial stress. She aims to make complex problems easier to manage with clear tools and small, steady changes.

Her style is supportive and direct. She encourages people to try practical strategies between sessions and notices what helps. Progress is framed as gradual - a series of small shifts rather than overnight cures.

Lisa invites people who are ready to take a first step toward change. She asks questions, teaches coping techniques, and helps clients set realistic goals. For those wanting a more fulfilling life, she offers consistent guidance and a steady therapeutic presence.

Approaches that focus on coping skills and healing

Lisa uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize practical coping skills and processing difficult experiences. One common approach helps people learn tools for managing anxiety and panic, such as breathing and grounding practices, step-by-step plans for facing fears, and ways to reduce overwhelming physical symptoms. Another strand of work focuses on understanding attachment and abandonment patterns, helping people notice relationship triggers and practice different ways of relating that feel safer and more effective.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and tailor methods to a person’s goals, comfort level, and life situation. This is a collaborative process where the client’s needs guide which techniques are tried and adjusted over time.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use video or phone choices that match their technical setup and energy level. Licensed professionals can still teach practical skills, review progress, and assign small practice steps between meetings to help maintain momentum.
