More about Lisa

  • 30 years' experience
  • Female
  • Psychologist

Hi! I am Lisa and I have been a psychologist for over 27 years. I look forward to meeting you. Therapy should feel warm and engaging and I work to build a non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts and emotions. My goal is help you understand who you are, and what you need, so that you can find contentment. I work with adults and adolescents in my private practice. I have been married for 27 years and have three children, ages 26, 22 and 16. Unfortunately, I cannot work with international clients.
