I'm Lisa, a social worker and psychotherapist. My career passions have been inspired by my own journey of healing, self-discovery, and personal growth. These lived experiences are what ignites my passion to help others. I see so much strength and tenacity in people everyday and I’m always amazed by what people can cope with and their own resiliency!
Where I Thrive
Individual and Couples Counseling, working with Trauma, Anxiety, Grief, Loss, Life Transitions, Illness and Relationship Issues, and Supporting Military and First Responders.
My counseling practice is rooted in evidence-based techniques, including trauma-informed care and mindfulness practices. I believe in the power of therapy to promote healing and growth, and I am committed to supporting you through your unique journey towards mental wellness.
Individual Counselling
I offer professional counselling and psychotherapy services as a way to promote emotional healing and personal growth. With a compassionate approach, I provide a safe and supportive environment for clients to explore their thoughts and emotions, and work towards positive change.
Couples' Counselling
Couples counseling can be helpful at any stage of a relationship, whether couples are just beginning, facing specific challenges, or simply wanting to improve their relationship quality. I use the Gottman Method and other approaches to explore relationship dynamics, communication patterns, and ways to manage conflict. The goal is to strengthen the bond between partners and develop healthier ways of interacting ultimately leading to a more fulfilling partnership.
Trauma-Focused Therapy
Trauma can have a profound and lasting impact on individuals. I provide a safe and supportive environment to process your experiences and develop coping strategies to manage and reduce related symptoms. My culturally specific clinical approaches helps you navigate the effects of trauma and find healing and resilience.
My Approach
I have witnessed firsthand the transformative power of support and encouragement. Although each individual's journey is unique, I understand how others’ experiences encompass many depths. This ripples into how I choose to show up for myself and others each day. I am committed to providing personalized care and creating a collaborative therapeutic journey with you.
