About Wallisa

Wallisa Connally is an LCSW based in Texas with 27 years of experience supporting people facing stress and anxiety. She brings a warm, interactive style and aims to treat each person with respect and compassion. Her approach focuses on practical conversation and clear steps rather than labels.

Wallisa has a long history of working with relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, grief and loss, mood disorders, and the everyday pressures that build up over time. She also has experience with issues such as ADHD, compassion fatigue, anger, and intimacy-related struggles. Her background includes years engaging with military communities and those connected to them.

In sessions she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy alongside humanistic and psychodynamic ideas to shape a plan that fits each person's situation. She adapts how she talks and what she assigns between sessions based on individual needs. Conversations are practical, direct, and geared toward small, doable changes.

How her approaches translate to online work

Wallisa uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy as core methods. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and helps people test and change unhelpful thought patterns to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on strengths and small, achievable changes so clients can build momentum toward specific goals.

Picking the right approach is part of the process. She will work collaboratively to decide which methods match a person's needs, goals, and preferred style. Early sessions focus on understanding the problem and trying a few strategies to see what feels most useful.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. Working remotely also helps people practice new skills in real-life settings and bring real examples to sessions for discussion.
