Hi! I'm Lisa. I am a National Board Certified Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor, Approved Clinicial Supervisor and Registered Play Therapist. Profound Insights serves the various needs of children, adolescents, young adults, parents and families.
While I utilize many therapeutic interventions, Play Therapy is at the heart of my practice. Play is a child’s natural way of expressing feelings. Children often show what they’re feeling through behavior, not words. Through guided play, clients will explore emotions, work through challenges, and build coping skills in a safe, supportive space.
Being invited into your family dynamic is my greatest priviledge. Our relationship will provide support and insight into behaviors in effort to faciliate growth and change. I incorporate individual strengths, values and interests into a variety of treatment modalities. Together, we will focus on these strengths to motivate change and achieve your goals.
