Lisa Lewis

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

When Lisa starts working with new clients, she notices that many of them feel stuck and want their personal lives and relationships with others to improve.

Lisa helps clients gain a better understanding of why they are struggling through understand themselves and what they are feeling, thinking, and doing through using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Lisa understands that it can be challenging to reach out for therapy. It can feel scary and vulnerable. One of her greatest strengths, as a therapist, is her ability to quickly connect with clients and provide a space where they feel safe to look at parts of themselves that have been too painful to address.

Having grown up in a family with parents who struggled with addictions and went through several divorces, Lisa has personally experienced the power of healing that is possible by using the same tools she encourages her clients use.
