I also focus on gender specific/sensitive issues. I take a warm, empathetic, and compassionate, respectful and interactive approach to therapy. My therapy approach incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and trauma focused approaches. I tailor sessions to meet the individual needs of the client. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I encourage and invite those with whom I work to enter therapy with an open mind and curiosity to learn about oneself.

I had my first session with Mrs. Lisa last week and I couldn't wait to book my next one. She read the information I sent previous to our visit, and was prepared to work. She won't give you the answer but help guide you and provides worksheets/exercises along the way to discuss at other visits. I felt comfortable speaking with her and would definitely recommend her to others.

I really enjoy the energy and wisdom Lisa brings to our sessions. She has a great way of guiding the session to topics and exercises that are very beneficial for me. After every session I feel like I have uncovered something that I’m able to take away and work on. A lot of “a-ha!” moments.

Lisa Travis-Johnson is very supportive and never comes across as judging. She's helping me to understand that just because someone says or you think something negative or anxiety inducing about yourself doesn't make it true! She helps with handling trauma. I've got a long road ahead of me but she is definitely helping me. I'm hopeful.

Lisa listens to me about my current problems and then discusses reasons and ways to move forward. She assigns me work to do online which helps me understand my current feelings. She has recommended books and other articles to read. She is very ubeat, kind and encouraging.

Lisa is very kind and extremely good at what she does. She has a nearly endless well of patience. And she is able to explain some of the more complex ideas of therapy and our emotions in ways that are easy to understand. She is a shining example of what it means to lead with curiosity, compassion, and without judgement. I cannot recommend her enough.
