Lisa CobeyMarriage & Family Therapist, MA, MFT (she, her)

About

I believe that everyone has the potential for self-growth and positive change is most reachable with accountability in an unconditional supportive environment. I utilize strength-based treatment, such as building one's "toolbox" or set of coping, assertiveness, and communication skills, and incorporate outside supports to enhance the therapeutic process. With children, I utilize a directive play method and also feel it's critical for parents to be involved in the therapeutic process through family sessions. With teens or adults, I utilize a solution-focused style and cognitive-behavioral techniques. I can help with: social-emotional development, child defiance, self-soothing, low self-esteem, attentional/impulsivity issues, time management, identity development, resiliency, relationships, life transitions, self-growth, anxiety/depression. I assist families experiencing grief, trauma, divorce, single parenting, foster care and chronic illness.
