About Lisa
Lisa Taylor is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Washington with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are facing anxiety, depression, eating and body image concerns, and related stressors. Her manner is warm and straightforward, and she aims to make therapy feel like a real conversation rather than a checklist.
She uses client-centered methods to create a respectful, collaborative space. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are common tools she draws on to build coping skills and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Somatic approaches are also used to help people notice and work with physical reactions to stress.
Lisa has worked in intensive programs and private practice, so she is familiar with both structured care settings and ongoing outpatient work. That background shapes how she supports people who feel stuck in repeating patterns or overwhelmed by life changes. She emphasizes practical steps alongside emotional understanding.
Her focus includes eating and food-related issues, obsessive-compulsive concerns, phobias, trichotillomania, and struggles with self-esteem and social anxiety. Lisa also attends to multicultural issues and the pressures young adults may face around identity and family expectations.
Her approach aims to balance challenge and support. Sessions tend to be direct but compassionate, with room for humor when it helps. She encourages people to take small, sustainable steps toward the life they want, even when change feels hard.
