Lisa considers Seattle, WA to be her hometown for becoming and being a therapist. Lisa studied locally in Seattle, WA earning her degree from Antioch University, where the campus calls Belltown home, and during her first three years of practice, working out of her Beehive and home office on Capitol Hill.
Having lived in Seattle WA for 17 years, Lisa understands the Pacific NW and life in Seattle, WA – especially Capitol Hill where she lived within a one mile radius for all of those years.
Providing therapeutic services to clients in WA state is of particular importance to Lisa as she sees this part of the country as the place and space where she came to become a therapist with the intention of serving her PNW community through mental health counseling.

Telehealth Counseling Services in Washington
Anxiety Therapy: I provide a safe and contained space for you to confide the worries, stress, uneasy feelings you are feeling today. Further, together we look at when those feelings first arose so we can gain an understanding of your history with anxiety throughout your life. From gaining an understanding of the roots of your anxiety, we can look at how to care and alleviate your anxiety in the here and now moment by working with how your body is carrying your anxiety, noticing how your mind interacts with your anxiety, and the connection between your mind and body as they interact together.
Depression Therapy: I provide a safe and contained space for you to open up about your history with experiencing depression and how you are feeling your depressive symptoms in the here and now. Uncovering one’s history with depression provides further understanding of the self and helps to deal with depression in ways that are proactive and healthy for one to alleviate her symptoms.
Grief Therapy: I work with you to process your feelings about the death of your loved one or any other type of loss you are experiencing, giving time to process your experience and your feelings. Additionally, I work in the here and now moment to help you discern what you are noticing in your life after the loss and reflecting on how you are changing as time passes.
Multicultural Counseling: I extend curiosity about you, seeks to understand your experience, offer empathy toward how you are feeling, validate you and your life, and think through how racism and oppression may be causing you distress in your life. As one who walks this line every day in my own life, I also recognize that each person’s experience is unique and cannot be summed up in the whole of a minority identity. Therapeutically, I am curious to know you.
Career Counseling: I attune to you and your unique challenges as you undertakes this journey of career transition. Growing the ability to notice, reflect, and make changes that are coming out of self-knowledge and awareness is a critical part of the work we will do together to help you make the career change you are seeking for yourself.
ADHD Counseling: I work with adults who are processing (often) a new diagnosis of ADHD that they have likely been suffering from since they were small children. Much of the work focuses on people being able to recall who they were as children and the effect ADHD had on their lives as they grew up. I also work in the here and now moment with people to help construct helpful ways of conducting their lives that help them to focus, pay attention, and be productive in their own lives.
If you’re interested in scheduling time with me, please reach out directly. I look forward to hearing from you!
