Education & Experience

Lisa is trained in Perinatal Mental Health and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). Lisa is drawn to working with those that are expanding their families. She knows the toll various experiences can take on an individual and their families in the perinatal period whether it be infertility, pregnancy loss or child health complications. Lisa brings a wealth of experience to the therapy setting including teaching parenting skills, teaching preschool, and as a children’s mental health case manager. She uses strengths-based approaches with each client to empower them to see how their unique strengths can support them through life’s challenges. Lisa uses her EMDR training and its theoretical model along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, mindfulness, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, and trauma-informed strategies to support her clients.
