Marriage & Family Therapist Associate, MMFT, LMFT A, LCDC I
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy Associate working towards full licensure in the state of Texas. I am passionate about affirming counseling for individuals, couples, and families. I believe in meeting clients where they are and that everyone deserves to be fully supported and celebrated in their life. Systemic counseling (focusing on the entire situation and how different things can impact a person), comprehensive sex education, and accessible mental health care are all very important to me as a Texan and as a member of my community.

Hello! My name is Lisa Merchant and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Currently I am only accepting individuals and couples with issues related to aggression. My counseling style involves asking lots of questions, listening intently, and providing feedback that is unique to your situation, rather than offering one-size-fits all advice. I also facilitate the Batterer Intervention and Prevention Program (BIPP) at the Ministry of Counseling. This a 24-week group intervention for domestic violence. I also offer an 8-week Family Violence Education Course as a court-approved alternative to Anger Management.

Struggling with anxiety or depression can cause you to have unhealthy thought cycles. Needing to disrupt these patterns of behavior long enough can lead to learning more about yourself in a healthy way. If you struggle with anxiety and/or depression I’ve been right there and I am willing to walk alongside you and help you get through this.

I can work with athletic teams on team building and performance related concerns. I can expand these topics beyond the world of sports for places including businesses and schools as well as for high risk occupations such as military personnel, firefighters, and police officers. I also work with young adult issues including depression, anxiety, and trauma (particularly related to past sexual assault). I also enjoy working with couples, families with teenagers, and LGBT individuals.

Taking the first step into therapy can bring upon many different thoughts and emotions. I understand this which is why I believe a genuine trust and relationship with your therapist can bring healing and peace. Whether you are faced with something that occurred 2 days ago or 20 years ago, allow me to provide you with a safe place to share your struggles, your stories and your strengths.

Each morning when I open my eyes, I say to myself: 'I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead; tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.'" ~Groucho Marx. I decided long ago that life is too short to feel miserable or to live in fear. I have since been in recovery for over 10 years! Today, I live my life differently, and, I can tell you, it's worth it. If you're ready to join me on this journey, give me a call.

After many years as a nurse, a cancer diagnosis led me to change careers mid-life, and as an LCSW, I now assist others in overcoming their own life transitions and obstacles. Major life transitions, such as divorce, loss, moving, retirement, empty nest, debilitating illnesses, and trauma can cause upheaval, grief, and a tremendous amount of stress. I believe that life changes, even the difficult ones, can with intervention result in personal growth, and allow for greater self-discovery and awareness.

Counseling is a crossroads experience. You have come to a place in your life where you have decided that the challenges of your life are more than you can bear on your own. You are inviting me to walk with you on that journey. In humility with patience, gentleness, and encouragement I strive to help you figure out more effective ways to live, new ways to handle your emotions and solve problems, and relationship changes that make life more satisfying personally, or in your marriage and/or family.

The story of your life will lead you through many ups and downs. Sometimes, you get stuck in a low spot and cannot find a way out. At other times, a chapter ends, and you struggle to turn the page and begin the next adventure. Maybe a dark moment lives in your past but refuses to stay there. Perhaps you are a parent watching your child struggle with their own story, wishing you could just swoop in and save the day. As a former High School English teacher, I have always known the power of stories. As a counselor, my goal is to empower my clients to take control of their story and write a more hopeful future.

I practice at Turning Point Counseling with 11 other clinicians/therapists. I primarily conduct psychological testing on children, ages 3-18 and adults of all ages. Most child and adolescent clients are referred to be evaluated for possible ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Learning Disabilities, or Bipolar Disorder or other Mood Disorders. With adults I do the same type of testing but also have evaluated over 2000 adults who are required to have psychological screening prior to weight loss surgery or pain patients who are required to have psychological testing prior to receiving a spinal cord stimulator or pain pump.

Your point of view, your values and your beliefs are what is important and what the focus should be. I want you to be comfortable in my space, and even have my dog, Mo, join us if you would like. This is your time to process life and think about what would work best for you and how you can achieve those goals.

Addiction is one of the toughest things anyone can face. It can be overwhelming, exhausting, and lead to lifelong consequences if left untreated. However, the truth is: We DO recover, and I do mean WE. My professional knowledge comes from a masters degree in addiction psychology, and my practical experience comes from my own journey of addiction and recovery.

"I cheated, I had an affair." No one ever wants to be told these words, but your partner just said them to you. They were your anchor and they betrayed your trust. In your shock and disbelief, you searched for answers, but that only lead to the worst fights you have ever had. Since then, you have lived as roommates keeping to your own corners of the house. You are tired of the distance and want things to just go back to how they were. But deep down you tell yourself, "It can never be like it was. Not now."

My orientation toward therapy is grounded in a humanistic perspective that holds individuals are inherently motivated toward well-being and self-actualization. Given a safe and supportive environment, I believe, most individuals embrace opportunities and insight to work toward changing negative patterns in their lives and to find hope and healing. From an advocacy orientation, we will utilize empowerment strategies and identify external barriers that inhibit individual development and self-advocacy skills and work through traumatic experiences and impacts from life experiences to return you to healthy functioning.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
