I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over a decade of experience in the mental health field. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and strengths-based, helping clients reconnect with their internal wisdom and resilience. I specialize in Internal Family Systems (IFS), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions.

My practice is a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore challenges, build coping skills, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, I will meet you where you are and help you move toward the life you want to create.

If you're ready to begin this journey, I’d love to work with you!

The strength and courage it takes to be able to share our experiences is a beautiful and sacred part of being human. My passion is to help individuals express, embrace, and empower their whole selves. Through trauma work, we have the opportunity to break free from shame, guilt, fear, and struggle. This helps us reclaim our power and build resilience. This doesn't justify the pain or trauma, but I wholeheartedly believe that the root of our pain is also the source of where our healing begins.

My approach is direct and encouraging. As a Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CMHC), Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), Integrative Mental Health Professional (CIMHP), and Nutrition Specialist (CMHNS), I am devoted to therapy that explores how trauma shapes the nervous system and influences our mindset, beliefs, and emotional responses. Through continued education in neuroscience and integrative health, I can help you understand the elements of the mind, body, and self. This way, we learn about the unique makeup of your whole self and how these elements manifest in your life. With nearly a decade of experience in the mental health field, I have supported individuals navigating complex trauma, including:

• chronic stress, insomnia, and health concerns
• Neurodiversity including head injuries, TBI, ADHD, and ASD
• burnout, people pleasing, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and work-life balance
• emotional, physical, and sexual abuse
• codependency and attachment trauma
• religious, cultural, and generational trauma
• grief, loss, and bereavement

I am a therapist that welcomes all, humbly, and strives to build community with those I encounter. You are welcome here, however you may be.

Hi, I’m Lisa Bell, and I’ve spent the last 25 years working with kids and families through some of life’s tougher moments. I enjoy supporting children between ages 3 and 12, and I work to make therapy feel safe, welcoming, and even a little fun—for both kids and parents. I bring a trauma-informed lens to my work with children (ages 3+)

and adults.

Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.

Getting honest about what you are carrying can feel like the hardest and loneliest thing you have ever done. I work with adults, teens, and older adults who are navigating recovery, trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, and the big life transitions that leave you feeling stuck. A lot of the people I see have been holding things together on the outside for a long time while quietly struggling underneath. Clients often tell me they finally feel heard and understood here, without any judgment.

That saying, "What doesn't kill me makes me stronger" -- I think it should be "What doesn't kill me makes me suffer." So many people feel unheard, disconnected, tired, worthless, fearful, sad, anxious and forgettable. They need the skills to nurture their resilience, to discern their incredible value. There's a loneliness in struggling. But I'm here to help you heal yourself with a new, creative perspective and find resources you didn't know you possessed.
