Zephon Lister

My communication style

I communicate with warmth, curiosity, and honesty, adapting my style to your needs. I listen closely, ask thoughtful questions, and tailor my feedback to what might be most helpful. At times I may be supportive, reflective, or appropriately challenging, helping you gain insight, consider new perspectives, and move toward meaningful change.

My journey to mental healthcare

From an early age, I was drawn to helping people heal and strengthen their relationships. I believe the quality of our relationships—with ourselves, others, God, and the world around us—deeply shapes our lives. I’m inspired by helping people strengthen these connections, discover new possibilities, and build meaningful, fulfilling lives.

My goals for you

I see goals as a collaborative and evolving part of therapy. Together, we’ll clarify what you want to change, identify realistic steps, and regularly assess what’s working and what isn’t. We’ll use what you learn in therapy in your day-to-day life, adjusting our approach as needed to keep you moving toward meaningful, practical change.

Our first session

Our first session is a chance to get to know each other and understand what brings you to therapy. I’ll complete an initial assessment, ask about what you’re experiencing, what’s important to you, and what you hope will change. We’ll begin identifying goals and next steps while making sure our work together feels like a good fit.
