More about Lisa
- 14 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I am a marriage and family therapist and have been licensed in the state of Colorado since 1993. My counseling experiences include working in an elementary school setting for 26 years, meeting with families in their homes as a family preservation specialist, and currently working in private practice. I specialize in the areas of depression, anxiety, and trauma, including domestic violence.
My style is “laid back” and “down-to-earth,” and my calm demeanor follows me everywhere I go. I believe that each and every person deserves to be celebrated and valued!
My main therapy modality is Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, focusing on assisting clients in reframing their defeating thoughts, focusing on what they have accomplished, rather than what they haven’t done. My goal is for every client to feel heard and to help them to see their strengths and ability to cope. Most important is that they feel a non-judgmental approach!
Welcome!

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.
