Hi! My name is Lisa Fargnoli, and I am a LCSW/LICSW with 24 years experience in the field. I have worked with most populations, and my specialties are working with people who have PTSD, dementia/Alzheimer's, anxiety, depression and family/relationship issues.
I am an authorized Oasis trainer, so mindfulness is an important part of my practice, as it soothes us mentally and physically. My approach is warm, honest, interactive and using humor when appropriate. I believe in you and I want to help you, believing in yourself! You are not alone in your struggles!
It takes courage to seek out changes for your life and I want to support you in your journey! "When you can't look on the bright side, I'll sit with you in the dark." author unknown.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
