I am Lisa Brawn, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, trained Play Therapist, and am currently pursuing a Geek Therapy certification. I am a Gamer & Geek friendly, LGBTQ+ friendly, Sex-Positive therapist. My focus is on helping my clients navigate their lives and relationships. I treat older children/teens, and adults of all ages. Much of my work has focused on anxiety, depression, trauma & post trauma, relationship and family issues, parenting skills, school difficulties, teen/adult ADHD, life transition difficulties, behavioral issues, and self-acceptance.

My approach to counseling involves the use of a wide variety of therapeutic techniques. I practice a wellness-oriented systems model (the whole life) of counseling/therapy with emphasis upon effective learning in life experiences and human growth and development.

When life throws you curve balls, it can be hard to realize when you need support; especially when you've learned to cope by pushing through. You may not even recognize the signs, but deep down you feel yourself loosing your grounding. You may even fear the vulnerability in asking for help. Well, vulnerability is power and your bravery and courage are the first steps to getting what you need to walk down a new path. My goal is to walk beside you - through whatever mess is in the way, empowering you to envision where you'd like to be and guiding you through the journey of healing and growth.

This is a tele-health practice. Everyone deserves a safe space to explore their human experience and to make peace with themselves and their situation. Life will send curve balls. We get out of balance and move through life disconnected and unhappy, consumed by constant worry. We judge ourselves harshly and become filled with self-loathing. We can get stuck or frozen in trying to figure out what to do next. Therapy is a place to clarify your values and move towards a more congruent life. I can help you find your path, accept yourself, and build healthy relationships. You will receive evidence-based tools to build your skill set.

You are seeking a stronger bond with your loved ones or you just want to obtain what is right for you. It is hard to deal with these struggles on your own. You tried to communicate with your loved ones and no matter how many times you tried to explain your narrative, you were met with anger, confusion, and frustration. You find yourself feeling the same emotions when you hear your partner share their perspective. It feels diffcult to have the same cycle repeat over and over again. You are at a point where you and your partner want to disrupt the cycle and try to become one again where you feel understood.

Everyone faces challenges in their lives that may cause stress, concerns, or behaviors that lead to a desire for change. In these times of transition it can be helpful to have a guide who is not a family member or friend; someone who can help by offering new ideas & help to create concrete goals to move toward positive change. My intent is to facilitate that process. I believe in addressing the “whole person”: mentally, physically, emotionally & spiritually, in ways that fit you & your needs because it's You, by Us.

My approach to Mental Health Counseling is to view the client as expert in their own life. I do not play the role of expert in my client's lives. I do, however act as a guide, advocate, educator, and support person. What I will do is attempt to see your issues from your perspective and your view of the world. I work within the framework of Person-Centered Therapy, which focuses on the client being the expert, Existential Therapy, which focuses on behavior and looks at how the client thinks, feels, and behaves and the impact they have on others.

I am currently accepting new clients for Telehealth sessions. As we all try to navigate life’s highs and lows, I believe it is important to remember that we don’t have to do it alone.
