About Wallisa
Wallisa Connally is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Texas with 27 years of experience. She offers a direct, compassionate approach that focuses on real problems people bring into sessions.

Wallisa aims to keep conversations clear and practical. She listens for patterns that keep people stuck and works with clients to try different ways of responding.
Background and approach
Sessions often include straightforward exercises and homework the client can use between meetings. Her background includes long experience with military-connected people and those facing life transitions. That history informs how she talks about stress, grief, and the impact of major changes.
She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats each person with respect and empathy. Wallisa blends cognitive-behavioral ideas with solution-focused work to help people find small changes that make daily life easier. She adjusts the plan to each person’s goals and pace, whether the focus is mood, relationships, parenting, or coping skills.
Clients can expect a warm, interactive style that emphasizes practical steps and steady support. The goal is clearer thinking, better routines, and improved ways to handle conflict and strong emotions. Wallisa works with adults to set achievable goals and track real progress over time.
Practical approaches online using CBT and solution-focused work
Wallisa uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT sessions often include simple exercises and small tasks to try between meetings to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and build better routines.She also uses solution-focused therapy to zero in on concrete goals and next steps. That approach emphasizes quick, practical changes and helps people notice what is already working so they can do more of it.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Wallisa will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods to try. Together they adjust the plan based on what helps most and move at a pace that fits the client's life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier during a busy day or when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and other commitments.
