I offer a free 1 hour session so we know how well we work together! Do you look around you and wonder why other people are so happy? Why do they have so much energy? How are they so productive and are able to laugh and joke like they do? Do you want to see more of these qualities in yourself? I really want to help you become that person because I was there too! I specialize in helping people reduce depression and become the happy productive person they want to be. Through Positive Psychology oriented/strength-based work, CBT, and DBT informed therapy I can help you gain these skills.

Are you wanting to enhance your mental well-being, foster self-awareness, improve relationships, and find fulfillment? Feeling overwhelmed or struggling?

I support clients of all ages and backgrounds to address various issues including depression, anxiety, stress, life transitions, trauma, ADHD, substance use, relationship conflicts, family conflicts, navigating multi-cultural issues, with particular experience with Asian and American cultures.

Taking New Clients! I recognize that life is difficult, therefore, I am passionate about bringing healing to others.

As an expressive arts therapist, I am dedicated to helping children and adolescents navigate their emotions, find their voice, and discover their true selves. I believe that the arts provide a powerful outlet for expression, allowing us to tap into our innermost thoughts and feelings. In our sessions, I create a safe and inclusive space for your child to explore their internal world. Through various art forms, we delve into the depths of their experiences, unraveling emotions that may have been held tightly within. My approach is holistic and strength-based, tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual or group.

I am a Psychotherapist who is dedicated to working with children, adolescents, adults and families. My approach is warm, collaborative and down to earth. My specialties include supporting clients who are struggling with socialization, depression, anxiety, parenting and relational issues, self esteem, grief and loss, anger problems, attention deficit disorders, trauma and transitions. I entered the field in 2004 and have worked in schools, foster care agencies and private practice settings. With compassion and understanding, I work with individuals to help them build on their strengths and attain personal growth, ease and well-being.

My role is to act as your guide to mental well-being.  We will work collaboratively in exploring your feelings and cultivating your self-worth.  Throughout your journey, I will support you as you regain inner strength, understand relational patterns and internal conflicts, and recognize how these factors connect to day-to-day struggles at school, work and in relationships. I see emotional discomfort as a way of communicating yet-to-be-recognized feelings, and the expression of your needs. I am here to provide you with a supportive and safe space to explore your past experiences and how they may affect your current circumstances.

Dealing with life changes can be challenging and overwhelming for anyone. As a therapist, my role is to provide a supportive and accepting setting in which people may gain a better understanding of themselves and find more effective ways to cope. I believe the basis for the therapeutic process is the human connection that gets created. This relationship develops in the shared space and time through an open conversation that allows a deep observation into the challenging issues of everyday life. Together we could identify what serves you, what barriers may get in the way, and find ways to better cope with change and hardship.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe in practical and person-centered therapy, meaning you are in charge of the process while I guide and support you. I specialize in using Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help manage big emotions and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical work challenges us to understand seemingly opposing thoughts and feelings. In DBT, we focus on building skills in 4 areas: Mindfulness, Interpersonal Effectiveness, Emotional Regulation, and Distress Tolerance to help achieve our goals.

I am passionate about working with people at the cusp of life transitions including relationship issues, employment and educational challenges, addressing undesired behavior patterns, spiritual and existential exploration, and emotions associated with trauma, grief and loss. As I collaborate with my clients, we explore past experiences and current thoughts and behaviors to assist us in identifying goals for the future. I strive to meet clients exactly where they are, emotionally, physically and spiritually, and to support and challenge them with compassion and curiosity.

Perhaps you feel lost, confused or down - unsure of how you ended up here and why you are feeling the way you do. You are beginning to question certain stories or beliefs you held about yourself and the world around you. Maybe you are seeking truth or some clarity on the unfolding of your life. You are certainly looking for healing and happiness. If any of these statements resonate with you, I hope we can connect to see how I may be of assistance. The labyrinth of our minds is a tricky road to travel alone. Life is better with a little help along the way.

I believe my role as a therapist is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can talk over your difficulties, and I in turn provide perspective, insight, and creative problem-solving strategies. With over 25 years of experience, I have many therapeutic approaches available. Past clients have told me that they appreciate my ability to listen reflectively but still provide active feedback and ideas that allow them to see a new angle on their problems and begin to change. I can be most helpful with relationship issues and with anxiety and depression. I have particular specialties in helping women with mid-life transition issues.

Does your inner critic whisper or scream "I am not enough?" Does anxiety, shame, and/or fear negatively impact the way you live, love, work, and lead? Over the past 10 years I have gained clinical expertise in understanding the bio-psycho-social-spiritual aspects of suffering and the importance of an integrated healing process rooted in evidence-based treatments. In my practice, I strive to create a non-judgmental and safe place to explore your unique needs and assist you in your personal growth. Treatment specialization includes therapy for shame resilience, anxiety, stress, trauma, grief/loss, transitions, medical crisis and addiction relapse prevention support.

I whole-heartedly believe that you are the expert on you! I hold the framework in our work together that you contain the inner wisdom around what you need for healing and growth. My role is to help you identify, strengthen, and listen to that inner guidance. At times this inner-knowing can become muted or distorted.

My clients often come to therapy stating their lives feel consistently chaotic and out of control. It seems that regardless of all they have tried, they can't escape from recurrent depression and major ups and downs in their mood. They often feel even the most minor situation triggers intense emotional pain. They describe significant difficulty within their relationships and report at times lashing out in anger because of feeling unheard, empty, and disconnected from their real self. They may even try to regain control of their life and emotions through self-destructive behaviors like drinking too much or hurting themself.

I specialize in helping women of all ages navigate life transitions. I will help you to listen to your own voice to make choices that align with who you truly are. Sometimes those choices can be challenging, complex and different than what you might have expected. You don't have to travel this journey alone, and will come through it stronger, clearer and more at peace with your decisions. You can read more about my work and experiences on my website: www.LisaBaronLCSW.com, and feel free to email me with questions.

Maybe you find yourself feeling “stuck in the past”. Maybe you’re exhausted from feeling like you can’t be yourself and are yearning for a more authentic life. Maybe you’re sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. Regardless of what wellness looks like for you, healing and growing is a journey..but you don’t have to go at it alone. I am passionate about helping you along the way- whether you’re just starting to think about change or you’ve been contemplating about it for a while. Through the ups and downs that may come, I will be right beside you providing a safe, inclusive, and affirming space.
