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!

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.
