I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Clinical Hypnotherapist. I have been working in the field for 20+ years. I utilize an eclectic approach to help improve your quality of life and to obtain the skills needed to accomplish your objectives. Interventions that may be used are Hypnotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Experiential Therapy in treating issues such as Addiction/Substance Abuse, Dual-Diagnosis, Abuse, Depression, Anxiety, Grief/Loss, and Trauma-related disorders.
Awareness is the first step toward creating a positive change in one's life and helping people to heal. By beginning an inner journey of self-exploration, we can create this change together. The well-being of my clients and providing a safe, comfortable environment are of vital importance. Collaboratively, we will work to develop a therapeutic relationship based on mutual trust, honesty, and respect; to accomplish your goals; and to make a positive change in your life.
I know it is not always easy to take the first steps in asking for help. If you are ready to move forward, I am here to help and support you.
I look forward to working with you!

I came to Lisa with several things I wanted to work through and improve upon. She spent adequate time going over each one with me to get to the root of the issue; I could tell she was listening with full attention and intent to make a difference. From then, she's worked with me to make progress in each of those areas. She never fails to address each area with me during our sessions and always leaves me with new ideas, tasks, and affirmations to help my progress. I am so grateful to receive her kindness and expertise.
