Lisa has been absolutely incredible. She has helped me dig through some of my deepest fears, and helped me through my relationship. I struggle with self confidence, and she has helped me to see that I’m worth it and I’m doing my best.

More about Lisa

Thank you for visiting my profile page! I’d like to share a little bit about myself, and I know that selecting a counselor is an important decision. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2001, and I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds with many different challenges and concerns. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and a Master of Arts degree in Counseling from the University of Colorado. I'm also working on a PhD in Psychology at Northcentral University.

In addition to my clinical work, I also enjoy teaching psychology classes at our Community College.

Personally, I'm a native of Colorado, and I absolutely love the outdoors and nature. I enjoy hiking, reading, painting and playing with our dog, Luna. Perhaps you can meet her online! I also love to travel with my husband.

My philosophy in counseling is to meet my clients where they are and discover the strengths they have to help them make the changes they want to make. In my experience, people come to counseling because something needs to change, and maybe they're feeling stuck. They may want to change how they feel, how they behave, or how they think about things. I take a compassionate and practical approach to counseling, which enables clients to see results quickly. I believe that what happens between sessions is as important as what happens in sessions, and I give clients tools to put into practice right away. I view the counseling relationship as a collaboration with you, and YOU are the expert in your life.

“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves”. Viktor Frankl

My specialties and experience include work with clients on decreasing depression and anxiety, overcoming trauma, and improving self-esteem and confidence. I have also worked successfully with many clients to change habits and behaviors that are not serving them. This includes substance use disorders and other addictions (e.g. gambling, eating, shopping, etc.). I also have experience working with first responders (law enforcement, fire, and paramedics) and their families.

Often, relationships are also part of the reason for seeking counseling, and I have specialized training and experience in helping people communicate more effectively, resolve conflicts, and become more assertive, personally, and professionally. Finally, my work with clients is often during times of grief and loss or transition in their lives, and I help people see the opportunities in change, even when the change is unwelcome or even scary.

My Approach: I have training and experience in a variety of approaches to work with clients. I believe that counseling interventions should be solidly grounded in research. I like to use these approaches:

* Cognitive -Behavioral Therapy

* Dialectical Behavior Therapy

* Solution Focused Therapy

* Meaningful Life Therapy

* Existential Psychology

* Mindfulness-Based Interventions

* Acceptance & Commitment Therapy

* Japanese/Eastern Approaches to wellness (e.g. Morita Therapy)

Seeking help takes courage and I commend you for taking this step! I would be honored to work with you as you take the next steps in your journey!

-Lisa

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I work in the social work and mental health field, so I came to BetterHelp looking for someone who can "counsel the counselor," so to speak. I was looking for a therapist that had something new to teach me, someone who I respected and could look up to. Lisa has definitely been a great fit for me in all of these ways. Through attentive listening and thoughtful feedback, Lisa has helped me learn more about myself, and she has given me hope that the challenges that I am facing can and will get easier.

Lisa and I have only been working with each other for a couple of weeks now and due to my current situation I have not been able to communicate as frequently as I would like. That being said, I have full confidence in Lisa's ability to help me with my many and complicated issues. She has kept in contact with me and and has checked in on me even when I haven't written her. That simple fact makes a big difference to me. Her years of experience are a huge plus. She been remarkable in her response. It seems as though she likes to gather as much information about you and what's going on, in order to plan a perfect and successful counter to them. I would definitely recommend Lisa's help to anyone who needs genuine help.
