Lisa Strause, LPC — Therapist in Pennsylvania

Hi there, I'm Lisa!

I am dedicated to helping pre-adolescents, adolescents, and adults cope with life transitions, anxiety, depression, anger, and relationship issues.

My focus

I have extensive experience with the LGBTQIA+ community and provide affirming care for TGNC (trans and gender nonconforming). I treat attention deficit disorder (ADHD), anxiety, codependency, gender or sexual identity exploration, life transitions, mood disorders, relationship and interpersonal issues, self-esteem issues, and personality disorders.

My approach

I utilize a client-centered approach to therapy and work collaboratively with clients. I also utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), holistic health, and psychodynamic approaches.

My communication style

My therapy space is warm, empathetic, and collaborative, fostering the individual's ability to build resilience, joy, and power.

My journey to mental healthcare

I entered this field because I believe in the power of therapy to transform lives. I am committed to creating a safe space where clients can explore their experiences and develop the tools they need to thrive.

My goals for you

We'll work together to identify your goals and create a personalized plan. I'll support you in developing coping strategies, building self-awareness, and making meaningful changes that align with your values and aspirations.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll get to know each other and discuss what brings you to therapy. I'll ask about your goals, concerns, and history. This is a collaborative space where you can share openly, and we'll begin mapping out how we can work together.
