HI! My name is Lisa. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia. I have been working in this field for over 18 years. I have extensive experience working with individuals, couples, and families through various life challenges. I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with painful life experiences such as divorce, grief and loss, as well as depression, anxiety and other mental health challenges.

I am skilled in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, TF-CBT, CTR, Person-centered and Solution Focused , along with many other treatment modalities.
