About Lisa
I’m a licensed therapist in Kentucky specializing in supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice centers on creating affirming, compassionate spaces for LGBTQ+ individuals, young adults, and those navigating stress, trauma, and personal growth.
With extensive experience, I offer expertise in addressing anxiety, social challenges, body image concerns, and sexuality. My approach is deeply empathetic and tailored to each individual’s unique journey. I’m particularly passionate about supporting clients through life transitions, relationship dynamics, and personal healing.
My therapeutic style integrates evidence-based practices with a holistic, person-centered approach. I focus on helping clients develop self-love, improve communication, and build resilience. Whether you’re struggling with panic attacks, processing trauma, or exploring identity, I’m committed to walking alongside you with genuine understanding and professional support.
