Hi, I’m Lisa T. (she/her).
Let’s get to know each other.
I am a born and raised South Seattlelite. I currently have two little kiddos with a partner and four pups. We enjoy exploring, eating new foods, and camping. I consider myself a down to earth person- who loves a good joke.
I’m passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges through connection, curiosity, and evidence-based therapy. I specialize in Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (RO-DBT), a powerful approach designed to support individuals struggling with over-control — including perfectionism, anxiety, disordered eating, depression, and people-pleasing.
I work with teens, adults, and families, and I believe that therapy works best when it’s a collaboration. Together, we’ll explore not only the challenges you’re facing, but also your strengths, values, and goals. My relational approach means that I value authenticity, trust, and creating a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported.
Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply curious about what growth might look like, I’m here to walk alongside you. Let’s work together to create meaningful change — at a pace that feels right for you.
