Lisa Campbell

Lisa Campbell

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 1.6 mi away • Boulder, CO


Lisa is the founder of Sun Stone Counseling, PLLC.

In her therapy practice, Lisa works to build a dynamic, trusting, non-judgmental connection with her clients. She strives to understand their perspective, and to help identify and utilize their personal strengths to achieve the change they seek.

Lisa believes we all hold the wisdom and resilience that enables us to shift towards our better selves and improve our lives. However we tend to lose access to these resources when we become entangled in difficulties and are overtaken by uncertainties and emotions. Lisa strives to assist her clients as they regain clarity and self-acceptance. She supports them as they draw on their personal resources to navigate the complications and capture the opportunities in their lives.

Lisa has an extensive academic and professional background in the natural sciences, particularly geology. This firm anchoring to the natural world helps to guide her client-centered, compassionate, realistic approach that is influenced by multiple theoretical orientations. These include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and Exposure and Response Prevention. She often draws on mindfulness tools as a component of the therapeutic work. She works with issues of trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, anger and OCD.

Lisa is committed to helping you feel heard and valued. She would like to support you in making the changes you seek.

Sara Forrest

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 1.2 mi away • Boulder, CO


Are you feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you? Maybe anxiety or OCD is keeping you from living your life in the way that you would most enjoy. Or perhaps you are challenged by losses or life transitions which are difficult to face alone. Having a safe place to express your thoughts and feelings can make a difference.

I became a therapist after seeing the benefits of counseling and art therapy on both personal and professional levels. I’m a licensed professional counselor since 2011 and a board certified art therapist since 2022. I hold a Master’s degree in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Art Therapy. In addition to my degree, also have significant training in a variety of evidence based treatments, including ERP, CPT, Motivational Interviewing, CAMS and ACT.

My experiences with hospice patients and caregivers, seniors, people in addiction recovery, people in crisis, people struggling with anxiety, trauma, life transitions, cultural and social justice concerns, have inspired me to offer therapy in private practice. In my spare time, I love to cook, sing, hike, and make art.
