Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, discouraged, or disconnected from the person you want to be? Maybe you’re carrying the effects of past experiences, navigating a difficult transition, struggling with depression, or simply trying to understand why life feels harder than it should.
I’m Lisa Ruhl, a Licensed Professional Counselor with nine years of experience helping adults work through a variety of mental health and life challenges. My goal is to create a counseling relationship where you feel understood, respected, and supported while also being gently challenged toward meaningful change.
I believe therapy should be more than simply talking about problems. We’ll work together to understand what’s keeping you stuck, develop practical skills you can use in everyday life, and identify meaningful steps toward healing and growth.
My approach is warm, empathetic, collaborative, and practical. I won’t judge you for where you’ve been, and I won’t expect you to have everything figured out before you begin. We’ll start where you are and work from there.
Additional areas of focus: Communication problems, Guilt and shame, Mood disorders, Post-traumatic stress, Social anxiety and phobia
Clinical approaches: Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy
