She graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Social Work and a Master of Arts in Social Work in 1986, working with families whose children had special needs. When she finished raising her four children and after her husband’s job relocation to Oklahoma, she acquired a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Oral Roberts University. Upon graduating, Lisa continued at Oral Roberts University as a mental health therapist in Student Counseling Services. Lisa and her family recently returned to Colorado. She is in the processing of transferring her license and opened her practice at Younify Counseling in April 2025. Lisa is married, has four amazing grown children, three beautiful daughters-in-law, a grandson and more grandbabies on the way. She volunteers in student ministries at her church and is excited to be back in Colorado!

 

Lisa believes that each of us has experienced difficulties in our lives that impact how we see ourselves, how we see others and how we see God. Using a holistic approach which includes body, mind and spirit, we can begin to understand the impact of these events and move toward wholeness. When we trust the Lord to highlight these experiences and explore them from His perspective, we can begin to receive the healing and freedom God intended for us. Lisa especially enjoys working with young adults, believing that the sooner we can be free from skewed perspectives, the more we can walk in wholeness and health. A healed perspective allows us to make healthy choices for our future. She believes clients who have a safe place to share their story can find lasting healing.
