About Lisa La Rose
Lisa La Rose is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a long history in clinical practice and teaching. She has been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2001 and holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Arts in Counseling from the University of Colorado; she is also working toward a PhD in Psychology at Northcentral University.
Alongside her clinical work, she teaches psychology courses at a community college, bringing academic perspectives into practical care. A native of Colorado, she enjoys the outdoors, hiking, reading, painting, and spending time with her dog, Luna, and she travels with her husband when possible.
Her counseling approach focuses on meeting people where they are and uncovering the strengths they already possess to create meaningful change. She combines compassion with practical strategies so clients can see progress and apply tools between sessions. She views the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative partnership in which the individual is the expert in their own life. She often cites Viktor Frankl's observation that 'When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.'
Her work spans a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, addictions, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting, anger, career matters, bipolar disorder, coaching, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Additional areas of focus include abandonment, antisocial personality issues, attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, control issues, domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, eating and food-related struggles, feelings of emptiness, family problems, and first responder issues.
She uses a variety of evidence-informed methods tailored to each person, drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment-based approaches, client-centered therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), existential therapy, mindfulness-based practices, motivational interviewing, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-focused interventions. Those interested in her background will find a blend of research-grounded techniques and practical, strengths-based care.
