LISA IS NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS

Lisa aims at creating a welcoming and safe space for anyone and everyone. She firmly believes in working from a strengths based and person centered approach to help people explore their emotions, increase self-esteem, develop resiliency and build skills to support their everyday life. Lisa draws from the following to guide her work: cognitive behavioural therapy, dialectical behavioural therapy, mindfulness, play-based approaches and emotion focused therapy.

Lisa completed her undergraduate degree in Psychology at UBCO with honours and a specialization in forensic psychology. Then after a couple years of working with people who have diverse abilities she decided to further her schooling by doing her Master’s in Social Work with a clinical specialization at UBCO. Since graduating she has been working in the health care sector offering individual and group therapy, and more recently assessment of child and youth.

Her areas of focus include working with all ages who struggle with or have: anxiety, depression, addictive behaviours, stress, life transitions, neuro-diversity, and/or overall mental wellness
