Lisa Holder, LPC

Lisa Holder is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years of experience. She is licensed in Colorado and Texas and has built a long practice helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and depression. She invites people who feel stuck or overwhelmed to take a first step toward change.

Over her career she has worked with people facing divorce, attachment and abandonment concerns, and the emotional fallout of abuse. She also helps those dealing with chronic pain, illness, caregiver strain, panic attacks, and mood problems. Her work addresses practical day-to-day challenges like money stress, isolation, and communication breakdowns.

In sessions she focuses on uncovering strengths that can be buried under hurt and fear. She offers concrete coping skills and teaches ways to handle intense feelings. The approach is straightforward and skills-focused, so people leave with tools they can use between meetings.

Lisa emphasizes collaboration and steady support. She acknowledges that starting therapy takes courage and works at a pace each person can manage. People who want help sorting painful past experiences from present goals often find this a gentle, goal-oriented way forward.

Her practice also looks at life transitions and purpose, including midlife changes and decisions around separation. She helps clients rebuild trust in themselves, repair communication, and cope with guilt or shame as they move toward better functioning.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

Lisa works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills people can use day to day. One common approach she uses teaches concrete coping strategies for anxiety and panic, such as grounding and breathing exercises and step-by-step ways to manage intense moments. These tools help reduce overwhelming symptoms and make daily life feel more manageable.

Another area of focus is addressing trauma and attachment wounds by helping people identify patterns and practice new ways of relating and communicating. This work often includes strengthening emotional awareness and trying out different responses in safe conversations so people can rebuild trust in themselves.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist works together with each person to choose what fits best. She learns about a persons goals, needs, and preferences, and adjusts methods as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online therapy can make regular sessions easier to keep in a busy life. Because session formats were not specified in the original biography, confirm current options before booking; this helps ensure sessions fit your schedule and daily routines. Online work can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to fit therapy around caregiving or work commitments.
