About me

My approach is supportive and practical, focused on making real, steady progress in ways that feel sustainable. I work with individuals navigating a range of concerns, including anxiety, workplace stress, social anxiety, low self-esteem, communication challenges, conflict avoidance, perfectionism, people pleasing, relationship dynamics, identity questions, grief, and life changes.

My goal is to help you feel more connected to yourself and more grounded in the life you want to create. Together, we’ll find tools that work for you so you can meet future challenges with more clarity and confidence. People are complex, and each person brings their own history, strengths, and struggles. I meet you where you are, stay steady through the hard parts, and keep the work collaborative and respectful.

Honestly, she changed my life. I was having terrible anxiety issues. I am not fixed and probably will fight anxiety for the rest of my life. Lisa has given me the tools to win those fights. My quality of life has increased drastically since I began my calls with her. I am very thankful I chose BetterHelp and that they paired me with Lisa

Lisa always makes me feel comfortable and safe. She also makes me feel heard and that she cares about me and my problems. She's the first therapist I've had, and she's such a good one I've recommended Betterhelp to lots of friends and family!

I believe Lisa really cares for my happiness and I appreciate that she gently pushes me to extend myself the same kindness.
