About me

HI! My name is Lisa. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia. I have been working in this field for over 18 years. I have extensive experience working with individuals, couples, and families through various life challenges. I specialize in working with families, especially with youth ages 12 and older and their families. I have worked in my community to build youth and young adult behavioral health services which have earned recognition at the state level. Because i recognize that children are a part of a larger family system, i work very closely with parents and extended family members as well.

Because every person is unique, my therapeutic style is based on identifying individuals needs and concerns and building on the therapeutic relationship to create a safe and trusting space for clients to begin working through life's difficulties. I am skilled in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, TF-CBT, CTR, Person-centered and Solution Focused , along with many other treatment modalities.

Talking to Lisa is like talking with a dear friend who has genuine concern and Christian values. Her wisdom and grasp of the situation is what makes her feedback so easy to understand and apply. I will highly recommend her services to anyone I know in need, and I look forward to making positive changes in my life with the confidence and trust she has given me.

Lisa is an incredible therapist! She is incredibly intelligent, compassionate, kind, and committed. I have been working with her for over a year and she has dedicated so much time and effort into helping me live my life moving towards freedom! She shared and taught me tools that help me daily. Her tools equip me to healthily navigate life, to regulate my own emotions, to steward my own relationships with healthiness. Lisa has been with me in a journey through extreme anxiety, getting engaged, married, and going through military deployments. She is loyal, a fierce supporter, and a safe space. Lisa is also hilarious too!
