Hi! My name is Lisa and I have been practicing in the field of Social Work and mental health close to 30 years. I have been afforded opportunities to work in a variety of settings. Some of the settings include Psychiatric inpatient, Community mental health clinics, Public School District( mental health) , Substance abuse and Geriatric health, to name just a few. I am energetic and have been described as , honest, caring , hardworking, upbeat ,open-minded, and knowledgeable. I have been known to utilize different therapeutic approaches depending on the concerns of the individual. I try to make each person feel as comfortable as possible. I treat everybody with the utmost respect, just the way I want to be treated. I am a good listener and I like others to feel like they are in a safe space when we are working together. I love to laugh and when appropriate, laughter can be quite healing. If you think based on this brief synopsis of myself, that I may be a good fit, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.

Lisa Scott is a great therapist. I honestly feel like she took her time to listen to my issues, find ways to help me cope with them and surmount them. Although my time with her was brief (due to my own financial issues), it was nice having someone to talk to. She's a great listener

Lisa has been great, and I chalk it up to luck more than anything. My first therapist through BetterHelp turned out to be a wash, and I was quickly matched with Lisa. She really understands my situation, and has the professional experience to back up her knowledge and suggestions. It has really helped me in these challenging days.
