About

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has been in the helping profession for over 15 years. I can't imagine doing anything more rewarding than what I do. My philosophy is very simple. "We are all in this together!"

I took a nontraditional route through my younger years. This allowed me to experience life in ways that I believe make me a good therapist. Life isn't always easy, or even kind. That is why I feel therapy is such a valuable thing to offer. I cannot imagine life without my work as a therapist.

I have had the pleasure of working in a practice for the last 15 years with a multidisciplinary team of psychiatrists, nurses, and clinicians. The perspectives from each of these professionals has provided me with a multidimensional view of the helping profession. I value my time with these professionals.

My approach to therapy is focused on building a relationship. It is within the therapeutic relationship that all of my skills and knowledge fit in best. I have extensive training and experience in trauma informed therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, supportive therapy, and motivational interviewing. I have years of experience treating anxiety disorders, depression, PTSD, and self esteem issues. I also have experience with sorting out complicated relationships, whether they are personal, romantic, or professional. I can teach individualized skills to cope, and to improve quality of life. I would love the opportunity to help you!

We are all in this world together. Life without meaningful connections with others that understand what we are, or have been going through can make all the difference in the world. I would love to show you how to live a meaningful and happy life.

I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Sincerely,
Lisa Leadbetter, LCPC
