Hi! I am Lisa McCormick.  I work from a place that is attachment-based, incorporates family systems, and is trauma-responsive. I utilize research-based, neurobiologically-informed principles and parenting strategies to help children and families develop confidence, discover their strengths and grow to be the best version of themselves.

I strive to help you understand your child’s unique way of regulating and expressing themselves, the impact of your parent-child relationship, and the influence of your child’s currently developing brain. Children develop and heal in the context of their relationships so you are the most important part of your child’s life; let me help and support you through that journey. When working with adults, I like to help you understand the brilliant ways your nervous system and brain have adapted to cope and how we can work together to help you learn new ways to relate with others and manage stress or trauma.

A key piece of my counseling practice is creating a space of safety, curiosity, reflection, and non-judgement. I use a variety of theoretical orientations and perspectives based on what will help you best heal and meet your goals. During my years working with adults, children, and families, I have seen firsthand how playfulness leads to an open and genuine connection. I feel privileged that families welcome me into their world, to work collaboratively, so that healing, growth, and connection can occur.  These same elements - connection and humor - go a long way in individual therapy work as well and are foundational to my approach.

Though I enjoy working with a variety of clients I have a particular interest in working with children, teens, and families who are struggling with their relationships, want to find relief from anxiety or depression, or want to heal from attachment injuries or trauma.
