I’m Lisa

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor in the state of New Jersey.  ​ 

 

As a therapist, I am privileged to establish therapeutic relationships based on trust and security. I believe in working collaboratively with you, recognizing that you possess expertise in your own life and experiences. Helping others has always been my passion, and it has driven me towards a career where I can assist individuals in making profound changes that lead to a more gratifying and healthy life.

I proudly identify myself as part of a new generation of modern therapists, who prioritize their humanity above their professional roles. I understand that you are a genuine person seeking a genuine connection. While our relationship is therapeutic in nature, it can also be authentic and meaningful.

Additionally, I serve as a Clinical Specialist at Montclair State University, where I supervise four counseling certificate programs and educate aspiring counselors.
