While many people can recover with the love and support of family and friends, others may discover the symptoms of lasting trauma, leaving the person to live with deep emotional pain, confusion, fear, or posttraumatic stress long after the event has passed.

Testimonials

Lisa has helped me take charge of my own happiness and situations that happen in my life. I can handle stressors in my life much better than I could just a couple months ago

-SC

My daughter says, ‘Thanks Lisa! You helped make my family stronger.’ That says it all in my opinion.

-Mother of Jenna

Lisa has a way of getting to the heart of the matter and helping people take responsibility for their choices and outcomes. I recommend Lisa’s training sessions for any business. Even if you don’t think your particular business would benefit from a “therapist” speaking – it will!

-Heather Howell

Our son was misdiagnosed with ADHD, doing poorly in school and feeling like something was ‘wrong’ with him. Lisa got us on the right path and now our son is happy, successful and feeling good about himself. Thank you for everything.

-RB and Family

Lisa we wanted to thank you for all you have done for our family. Your work is truly priceless!! We will never forget how you helped turn our family into the best it could be!

-Wife and Mother

I never believed in therapy but decided to go as a last resort before my wife and I divorced. Lisa saved my marriage! She helped us both work through our resentments and issues. If you’re skeptical or have had bad luck with other therapists, I highly recommend you try Lisa before giving up!

-Dave S

My drinking was out of control and my wife was leaving me. Lisa’s direct approach and focus on my strengths got me headed in the right direction. Now i’m training for a marathon instead of drinking.
