Lisa Fehr

Lisa Fehr is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people handle anger, stress, anxiety, and life changes. She draws on 12 years of experience and focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life easier.

She starts by listening and treating each person as the expert on their own life. Lisa uses a client-centered approach to support and empower people as they work toward change. The first sessions typically clarify goals and identify simple, achievable steps.

Lisa also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people spot and challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She teaches relaxation and coping techniques people can use when feelings run high. These tools are aimed at reducing panic, easing depression symptoms, and improving everyday functioning.

Mindfulness and present-moment practice are woven into sessions when they fit a person’s needs. Lisa encourages short, practical exercises that can be used during stressful moments. She blends these with solution-focused ideas to set clear goals and track small progress.

Her work addresses focus and impulsivity issues often linked to ADHD and looks at communication problems, loneliness, life purpose, and self-love. Lisa practices in Iowa and holds the credential LMHC, which stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor.

Approaches that translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, understanding, and helping people set their own goals. It supports people by following their lead and building on strengths. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches people to notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, anger, panic, and low mood. Mindfulness therapy introduces short practices to help notice the present moment and reduce reactivity; these practices can be brief and practical for everyday use.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Lisa works collaboratively to decide which approaches fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try techniques, track results, and adjust the plan so sessions stay focused and useful.
