About Me
Hi, I’m Dr. Lisa!
For over 20 years, I’ve been helping clients navigate life’s challenges and take back control of their lives. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD, relationship stress, or major life transitions, I provide a safe space to process, heal, and grow. I use evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs because there’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to healing.
Therapy isn’t just about talking—it’s about learning real tools to break free from unhealthy patterns, build confidence, and feel more emotionally balanced. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start, you’re not alone. Let’s work together to help you move forward.
My experience goes beyond individual therapy—I’ve supervised other therapists, provided corporate-level mental health support, and worked within a wide range of therapeutic settings.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I’m happy to help you take the first step!
