About Lisa
Lisa Amarant is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in California with 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self esteem, depression, and bipolar disorder. She aims to treat each person with dignity, respect, and compassion while offering straightforward support and challenges when needed.
Her sessions emphasize practical strategies and honest conversation. She listens closely, reflects what she hears, and gently challenges negative thought patterns that get in the way of daily life. She also helps people rebuild confidence and motivation after a setback.
Lisa draws on a mix of therapeutic approaches to match each person's needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also works in collaborative, person-centered ways that prioritize the client’s goals and pacing. Mindfulness-based ideas and acceptance-focused techniques appear alongside motivational interviewing and narrative work when they fit the plan.
Her background includes years in community mental health, where she supported people with mood disorders and relationship challenges. She helps clients set clear, achievable goals and tracks progress together across sessions. Lisa encourages small, realistic steps toward better daily functioning and increased self-respect.
Starting therapy is often a brave move, and she acknowledges that. She invites people to take the next step by completing the required matching process and scheduling a first session when ready.
