Welcome. Seeking therapy is a meaningful step, and I believe you deserve a space where you can feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that people have the capacity to heal, grow, and build lives that feel more manageable and fulfilling. I am Juton and I am a clinically licensed professional with over 15 years of experience providing crisis intervention, grief support, behavioral health services, clinical practice support, and training for helping professionals. My professional background includes work with individuals facing acute stress, life transitions, loss, emotional overwhelm, relationship concerns, and the effects of demanding work or caregiving roles. I work with adults who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, grief and bereavement, adjustment challenges, trauma-related stress, low self-esteem, or difficulty managing major changes in their lives. I am especially passionate about supporting people in high-stress helping professions, including healthcare workers, first responders, educators, caregivers, and behavioral health professionals. I would be honored to support you on that journey.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe that prioritizing mental health is an integral part of quality of life. Congratulations on taking the first step towards self improvement! I have been practicing for 20 years with a focus on individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, and difficulty with life transitions. I am also passionate about working with couples who are experiencing disconnection, conflict, and communication issues.
I earned my Bachelor's degree in Social Work and later my Master's in Social Work, becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have extensive experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and major life transitions. While I welcome adults from all backgrounds, I have a special passion and expertise in working with Women of Color. I understand the unique pressures many women carry—the expectation to always be strong, care for everyone else, and keep pushing even when they're emotionally exhausted. My goal is to provide a culturally responsive, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. Whether you're navigating grief, divorce, burnout, empty nesting, or rediscovering yourself, I'll meet you with compassion, honesty, and practical tools to help you move forward.
If you’ve been carrying stress, trauma, or emotional weight that’s starting to show up in your thoughts, relationships, or daily life, it can be hard to know where to start. I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and the impact of past experiences. You might notice yourself overthinking, feeling easily overwhelmed, shutting down emotionally, or reacting in ways that don’t quite make sense to you. Many of my clients come in feeling stuck but ready to better understand themselves and move forward in a different way.
- I am committed to providing a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone feels respected and valued. My practice celebrates diversity and is dedicated to understanding and addressing the unique cultural and personal needs of each patient. At my practice, i understand that everyone faces challenges in life. My goal is to empower you and tap into your own skills to problem-solve and move forward. I believe in creating opportunities for growth and healing through a collaborative approach. When it comes to prescribing medication, My philosophy is to prioritize minimal intervention with maximum benefit. I aim to find the most effective treatment plan tailored to your needs, minimizing medication while maximizing therapeutic outcomes.
I am a social worker with experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life challenges. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a focus in Family Studies and a Master of Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health and Addictions. I work primarily with adults and provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.
Hi and Welcome! I’m Lisa, and I’m so glad you’ve taken this next step on your wellness journey. Reaching out for support is often the hardest part, and I’m honored you’re here. My client's are often navigating things like depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, and just big life stressors that leave us feeling lost and overwhelmed. I am also passionate about working with the perinatal population—whether you’re in the family planning stages, currently pregnant, or in the postpartum phase where you're surviving off of chaos and coffee (me too). Whatever season of life you're in, you don't have to endure it alone.
I help support individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, loneliness, as well as acute or chronic physical pain/illness.
I utilize some talk therapy in addition to the following evidence-based therapies: CBT, DBT, ACT, and MBSR depending on your unique needs and goals.

My professional journey spans over 15 years across clinical practice, healthcare operations, and community leadership. I hold both a Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and a Master of Social Work (MSW) from Adelphi University.

This background allows me to understand my clients not just in isolation, but within the broader context of their environments, families, and communities.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, if you are feeling stuck and don't know where to begin, I can help you find the way. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and comfortable being yourself. My clients often describe me as warm, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to — someone they can open up to without feeling judged or rushed. I have a strong passion for supporting my clients in the way they need and desire to be supported. I have a deep personal and professional understanding of the human mind and the struggles of life. I genuinely care about my clients and their wellbeing.
