about lisa

I’m a Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed by the State of California to provide psychotherapy and an AASECT-certified sex therapist. I also have a Master of Fine Arts degree in Creative Writing (Poetry).

I am fluent in Spanish and English.

I work primarily from a psychodynamic and relational perspective. In addition to my experience working with adults of all ages, I also worked for many years with children, adolescents and families and currently enjoy helping parents navigate this challenging role and improve their relationships with their children, partly by considering their own childhood experiences.

I also have extensive experience in psychiatric settings and am comfortable treating people who are suffering with depression, anxiety and other mental health conditions.
