About Lisa
Lisa Fehr is an Iowa licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 12 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and life transitions. She also helps people who struggle with attention and focus related to ADHD.
Lisa starts from the view that each person knows their own story and strengths. She listens first and helps clients use the abilities they already have to face current problems. Sessions include practical skills as well as chances to rethink unhelpful thoughts.
Her approach includes client-centered methods that prioritize the client's perspective. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change thought and behavior patterns that feed anxiety, anger, or low mood. She also teaches relaxation and coping skills for managing stress and panic symptoms.
Lisa includes solution-focused techniques to set concrete goals and identify small, achievable steps toward them. That might mean planning communications, breaking down tasks, or practicing brief calming strategies. The work often mixes skill practice, short-term problem solving, and looking at thought patterns that get in the way.
Sessions are practical and straightforward. People who want clearer ways to handle irritation, reduce reactive moments, or manage frustration at work or home may find this approach useful. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial appointment to discuss goals and next steps.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building from the client's perspective. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist learn your priorities and tailor session focus around what matters most to you. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. Online CBT typically involves reviewing patterns, practicing short exercises, and using concrete strategies to reduce anger, anxiety, or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and grounding practices that can reduce reactivity and improve attention in daily life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to try methods, note what helps, and adjust the plan based on goals and preferences. That means sessions may include skill practice, short homework tasks, or goal-setting depending on what is useful.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people practice skills in their usual environment. Many find it helpful to schedule sessions around work breaks or to use brief exercises between appointments to keep progress moving.
