There are literally hundreds of therapy approaches. And yet, effective treatment is like learning to ride a bicycle: No matter what kind it is, you have to hop on and pedal if you want to get anywhere! I specialize in focused, experiential psychotherapy. That means together we pay direct attention to your genuine and palpable experience in session, including feelings, thoughts, discomfort, and body sensations. In some ways, it's like a shared meditation.

You are on a path toward healing. I would love to partner with you and bring my training and experience to support your healing and growth. My work as a counselor began 10 years ago in Colorado. I worked for a transitional housing program to help clients overcome addiction and other barriers to stable housing. I worked in a jail as a part of a rehabilitation program to reduce recidivism. I worked for a community mental health center with clients transitioning out of hospitalization or incarceration. I worked with adolescents in a community-based program to treat addiction and other systemic barriers to well-being. When I moved to California I worked for a family resource center to provide trauma counseling to children, adolescents, and families. I worked with individuals and couples, led process groups, and taught parenting classes. Now I have a private practice and am engaged in the wonderful healing community of Nevada County.

What sets me apart is my commitment to seeing each person as an individual. Lutishia's approach to therapy is rooted in the power of a simple conversation.

Cross-training in Clinical as well as Counseling Psychology with state & national Addiction Certification Counseling allows for a flexible, integrative approach to a range of issues; mood disorders (depression/anxiety), relationship, occupational, grief and loss, and health-related concerns. For most, a practical, supportive, solution-based approach is the best way to work through more immediate, real-life problems, e.g., interpersonal conflict or chronic symptoms, but, depth-psychology is a good approach for those who may be seeking deeper meaning.

Welcome! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field. I'm a child and adolescent specialist, but I also have extensive experience working with adults. My approach is empathetic, warm, authentic, straightforward, and nonjudgmental. The goal of my practice is to provide a safe space of acceptance and unconditional positive regard that will help you build a stronger sense of empowerment and self-love. I can offer guidance, assist with gaining a better understanding of issues, and help you develop strategies to manage whatever problem you're facing. I have a wealth of knowledge and experience in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulties, and body image issues. But I believe the true expert in treatment is you! I hope to have the opportunity to work alongside you on your journey.

I work with youth and adults, facing challenges related to intimacy, communication, or personal fulfillment. My ideal client can also be a parent, juggling the demands of raising children while maintaining their own well-being. Together we can explore a deeper understanding of self and emotions, desires to develop healthier coping mechanisms, build resilience, and enhance your self-esteem.

I am a licensed clinical social worker who has been working with children, youth and adults for the past eight years. My background is special needs case management and parenting as a school social worker. My "why" when I think about my work is this: listening to clients stories' and sitting with them in their path to building resiliency. I believe the client knows themselves and their strengths, I sit by and guide them to build insight about how they want to make changes for personal growth. I champion my clients as they build their capacity for vulnerability to develop their authentic selves. I consider it a huge privilege to do this very important work.
