In our work together, your well-being and personal growth are my top priorities. My goal is to provide you with the personalized attention and compassionate support you deserve. Each session is an opportunity for us to collaborate in a way that feels right for you—one that honors your unique experiences, strengths, and needs. I believe in your ability to navigate life’s challenges, and my role is to empower you with the tools, insights, and encouragement you need to move forward with confidence. Whether we’re addressing specific issues or taking time to reflect, I am here to support you in a way that feels safe, validating, and nurturing. Seeking therapy is already a powerful and courageous step, and I’m here to walk alongside you as we work towards your goals, at your pace.

Counseling is my gift that makes room for me. It is more than a job to me. It is a part of who I am. I am a Christian and this you will see even in the counsel that is given.

My name is Keith Lisenbee. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with a variety of clinical and management experience spanning nearly 30 years. My specialties include working with individuals with issues related to major life changes, depression, anxiety, addictions, career challenges, forensic and legal cases, and life crises.

My approach to counseling is faith-rooted, neuroscience-aware, and trauma-informed, recognizing the profound connection between emotional, relational, physical, and spiritual well-being. For clients who desire it, biblical principles are thoughtfully integrated with evidence-based therapeutic practices to support meaningful growth and healing. By understanding how the brain and nervous system respond to stress, adversity, and trauma, clients can develop practical skills that foster resilience, emotional regulation, and lasting change. Counseling is a collaborative process tailored to each client's unique circumstances, strengths, and goals. Together, we work to increase self-awareness, clarify personal values, and cultivate healthier patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating. Whether addressing the impact of past experiences, navigating anxiety or life transitions, strengthening family relationships, or pursuing personal growth, treatment is guided by compassion, respect, and clinical excellence.

I have experience in helping with a number of different concerns including but not limited to: adhd, behavioral concerns, parenting, suicidal ideation, coparenting, communication, conflict resolution, intimacy, trust issues, values, respect, divorce prevention and/or navigation, trauma (childhood, emotional, physical, sexual abuse, ptsd, night terrors), personality disorders (narcissistic, antisocial, borderline), bipolar, anxiety, depression, ocd, phobias, stress, boundaries, and diverse relationships issues (polyamorous, LGBTQ+ included). I have over six years of experience and I have a love of learning. If I don’t initially know how to best help I enjoy broadening my knowledge and growing my toolbox to find a way to help. I believe in out of the box thinking and creative solutions and I have the determination to work together to find the solution best for you and your family.
