(she/her)
Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here. It’s truly an honor to support you as you take this meaningful step toward your well-being and self-understanding. With over 14 years of experience in social work, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals across the life span experiencing a wide range of experiences. This includes supporting individuals navigating depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and loss, parenting challenges, and end-of-life transitions. I want to gently acknowledge the courage it takes to reach out. Choosing to begin this process is not always easy, and simply being here reflects a deep commitment to yourself and your growth. My approach is compassionate, empowering and collaborative. I strive to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported, while also helping you tap into your strengths and move toward the life you want for yourself. Whether you’re facing a difficult transition, working through loss, managing anxiety, or exploring who you are more deeply, we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you. It’s a privilege to walk alongside you. Your well-being is always at the heart of our work, and I’m here to support you with care, respect, and intention.
In our initial session, we’ll begin with a thoughtful introduction and take time to explore the concerns that have brought you here. I approach this first meeting with care and intention, creating space for you to share your experiences in a way that feels comfortable and supported. This conversation allows me to gain a deeper understanding of your unique needs, goals, and strengths. From there, I will begin to thoughtfully develop a personalized, strategic approach to guide our work together—one that is tailored specifically to you and designed to support meaningful, lasting progress.
As your therapist, my focus is on helping you understand the deeper patterns shaping your experience. I approach our work with both insight, knowledge and intention—offering guidance, education, and steady support along the way. My goal is to empower you with the clarity, tools, and confidence needed to make meaningful changes, so you can move forward with greater ease, purpose, and alignment with the life you envision.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I am a licensed clinical social worker/therapist who utilizes an integrative, evidence-based approach to treatment, drawing from multiple therapeutic modalities to meet the unique needs of each client. My work incorporates mindfulness-based practices, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Interpersonal Therapy. I emphasize the development of present-moment awareness and emotional regulation through mindfulness, helping clients build insight and reduce reactivity. Using CBT and DBT-informed strategies, I support clients in identifying and restructuring unhelpful thought patterns, while strengthening skills in distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. ACT principles guide my work in helping clients increase psychological flexibility, align with personal values, and reduce experiential avoidance. In addition, I integrate Solution-Focused techniques to promote goal-oriented change by identifying strengths and building on existing resources, while Interpersonal Therapy informs my focus on relationship patterns, communication, and social functioning. My therapeutic style is collaborative, structured, and strengths-based. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel empowered to develop practical skills, increase self-awareness, and make meaningful, sustainable changes in their lives.

She is great! I always leave my therapy session feeling empowered and light. Lisette is my safe place where I know I can speak on whatever I have going on in my life. I am so happy that I was able to find someone like her.
