Hi I'm Lisa. I know it can be hard to get the momentum to make that first call or send that first email out, especially if you are feeling unmotivated, depressed, anxious, unfulfilled or unchallenged in life. You don't need to feel this way any longer. Investing in yourself and your relationships are always wise investments. I offer face-to-face, online and walk-and-talk therapy. LGBTQ+ allied.
My style is interactive, collaborative, reciprocal, motivational and solution focused. I don't believe therapy should be an extensive, silent process, but rather a collaborative, positive and evidence based effort between parties. I aim to be a guide on the side rather than a sage on the stage. YOU are the expert of YOUR life.
We don't go to therapy to hear "how do you feel?", we go to therapy to be challenged. We go to learn how to grow, how to excel, how to communicate, how to change. If you want a "yes" therapist, I'm not for you. If you want to grow, change, develop, live in your authenticity... give me a call. We can do great work together.
Take the first step to help. Lisa Nicholas now
