Specializes in Anxiety, Cultural Issues/Racial Stress +8 moreHi, I'm Lisa, a Licensed Professional Counselor. I help clients manage and work through anxiety, depression, breakups/divorce, grief and loss, OCD, and the many other things that life throws our way. I view counseling as a partnership between the therapist and client, and my goal is to support clients in strengthening their relationship with themselves. One of my strengths is helping clients find better ways to communicate with themselves by understanding, disputing, and filtering out negative self-talk that can keep us from moving forward in life.Next available:Thu Nov 5 @ 11PM

Specializes in ADHD, Anger Issues +7 moreLife gets overwhelming—work, relationships, and just trying to keep it all together. I offer a supportive space to unpack everyday stress and build healthier ways of coping because mental health is just part of being human. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to reframe unhelpful thought patterns and strengths-based practice to recognize the invisible strengths my clients have a hard time seeing when life is throwing them challenge after challenge. Therapy with me is both reflective and action-oriented; you’ll gain insight, but you’ll also leave with tools.Next available:Mon Nov 2 @ 2PM
