More about me

Licensing: MS, LMHC Years in Practice: 30 State: New York

I am a licensed mental health counselor in New York and Massachusetts with over 10 years of experience providing mental health and addiction counseling to individuals and couples and over 30 years as a holistic healing arts practitioner and teacher of somatic and energy-based therapies that integrate bodywork, counseling, movement, and mindfulness.

I have worked in addiction treatment, at college counseling centers, with cancer patients and their families, and at community health centers as well as in private practice. I work with people of diverse ages, ethnic/cultural backgrounds, and spiritual traditions with different reasons for seeking therapy, including anxiety, mood disorders, grief, trauma, addictions, serious health problems, relationship issues, life transitions, and explorations of gender, sexuality, spirituality, and meaningful life purpose.

Whatever reasons you may have for reaching out at this moment, I am ready to work with you as part of a collaborative relationship in which you feel respected, supported, and free to express your feelings and talk about anything without fear of judgment. I will listen with care to help you identify personal gifts, abilities, and resources you might not be aware of and draw on a variety of therapeutic models and approaches so that together we can effectively meet your needs and goals.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Ranging from $60 to $90 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

I worked with Lisa over the course of about 6 months. She's an extremely compassionate and down-to-earth person with awesome insight into the human behaviors that result in suffering and anguish. Lisa has helped me reassess a lot of beliefs I had that were causing me stress and anxiety, and provided some truly unique perspectives on issues I've been struggling with.

Lisa and I have had two sessions so far, and I'm SO grateful to have been connected with a kind, knowledgeable, seasoned therapist! She is easy to talk to, super understanding, works with me to process and digest my issues, and helps me look at things at different angles that I hadn't even considered. On our first session, I dove in quickly and she responded in all the ways I needed her to. I haven't been this excited to work with a therapist in a long time! Thank you, Lisa and Better Help!
