​
Lisa was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia; and then spent eight years in California, before making NYC home for the last seventeen years. Since she has almost lived in NYC longer than Atlanta, she now considers NYC her real home! Lisa loves exploring the city (when possible), yoga, and trying any and all types of food.
​
Lisa received her Bachelor of Science in Psychology from University of California, San Diego; and later an MSW from New York University in 2006. Lisa’s career path has primarily been in the field of medical social work. She initially worked in the hospital system, where her crisis intervention skills were developed. Lisa has more recently worked for nine years at an outpatient medical clinic, providing a range of supportive and clinical services to those with chronic health conditions. Here, she has also gained extensive experience with the LGBTQ+ community. This position has allowed Lisa to cultivate a diverse skill set; and work with individuals with varied mental health needs. Additionally, she has evolved as a clinician by supervising Master’s level social work interns.
​
Lisa has an eclectic and strengths-based approach to psychotherapy. She works to find the best fit for each client, drawing from CBT, mindfulness modalities, and motivational interviewing. She is an active therapist, who always encourages feedback and collaboration from each client. At her core, she is curious about the human experience; and how to improve the day to day existence in this challenging world. Lisa is particularly interested in the field of anxiety treatment; and holds the belief that every person is capable of learning new skills and evolving in some capacity.

I understand the whirl wind that motherhood is. The challenges of identity, roles shifting, work, household, children and a social life can be overwhelming. Infertility, miscarriage, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and being a mother all leads to hormonal shifts, trauma, and changes that can cause depression, anxiety and intrusive thoughts. It is a normal reaction to what you have been through but none the less, distressing. You don't need to feel alone with your thoughts. We are a safe non judgmental space to see that your experience is normal. There is help to change how you are feeling.
Our practice is specially trained in this area of women's health. My therapy approach is one of empathy and partnering with you to understand your symptoms better. I work with you to build meaning in your life while reducing uncomfortable feelings you may be having. Together we can help you achieve your goals to move you forward.
I give clients tools to help them manage their difficult feelings throughout the week and to work on long term rewiring of their brain to help get them long term results.

​
Although not a Queens native, she has fallen in love with this big beautiful borough full of green parks, delicious foods, and sandy beaches. On weekends Lindsey can be found spending time with her 2yr old son, husband and dog at a park or grabbing a bite to eat at one of Queens delicious restaurants.
She grew up in the Hudson Valley and moved to Westchester for college and eventually to NYC for graduate school, earning her Masters of Social Work from Fordham University.
​
​She spent four years providing intensive family therapy to those in crisis. With a deep passion for helping people through traumatic events, she sought to continue education at Adelphi University. Although it was a long drive to Long Island after work, it was well worth it when she earned her certificate of advanced trauma studies, giving her the specific training she needed to help people heal from traumatizing events. This path led to her employment with the Department of Veteran Affairs in Northport, Long Island. She spent several years working with veterans in the mental health clinic. She served as a team lead for behavioral therapy at the clinic, supervised master level interns training to become clinicians, and became a certified provider nationally by the VA in treatments for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and couples therapy. Eventually, she was promoted to manage the women’s health program at another VA medical center.
She received training in new treatments that alleviate anxiety and depression, treating a large number of people suffering with these symptoms. Treating anxiety is a huge passion of hers since it something that touches everyone at some point in their lives.
For the last four years she has been growing and expanding her own practice which is at the heart of her career, putting her on the map as a leading anxiety therapist in Queens, NY. It is the culmination of her years of experience and training that allowed her to bring her unique style of healing to her clients, like you, here in Queens. Finding her business’ home in Forest Hills has been a natural fit from day one. Having the freedom to work with everyday people that are all just struggling to navigate life, like we all are, has been her most exciting journey yet.
