Professional statement

Lisa’s motto is something her grandfather taught her: “You’re going to get the lesson until you get the lesson.” This means sometimes, the same lesson presents itself over and over until it’s learned. This sentiment informs how Lisa holds space and supports her clients.

Lisa advocates for women’s rights and anti-racism. By facilitating a space where women, especially Black and BIPOC women, can shed harmful societal programming, Lisa’s clients reconnect with themselves, identify their needs, and find wholeness.

Lisa developed a mindfulness-based, trauma informed, and anti-oppressive practice with a spiritual focus. Her clients cultivate a stronger mind-body connection, which enables them to tap into their inner wisdom, create a life aligned with their values, and find their purpose. In working with Lisa, clients explore and build on strengths, express emotions, overcome roadblocks, and find hope.

Message to clients

In a world where you’re taught to shrink back, therapy awakens your authentic giant. Together, we’ll create a space to facilitate healing, strengthen your intuition, and grow spiritually.

I provide a space where young adults and women—particularly Black and BIPOC women—can show up and feel supported. Racism, discrimination, and microaggressions can cause you to question your self worth and contribute to feelings of anxiety, depression, or grief and loss. By creating a safe, nonjudgmental space, I’ll partner with you to develop a spiritual connection, unpack your emotions, and move forward.

Emotions are like waves. They come and go. If you don’t allow yourself to feel what you feel, that wave will only get bigger and come back. Move through your emotions like water and learn what you need to learn so you can grow spiritually.

You aren’t reading this by chance, so trust your gut. If you’re looking to create a better life for yourself, finding a therapist is the first step.
