About Lisa
Lisa Aragon is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with ten years of experience helping people manage anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She uses a person-centered approach that focuses on each person's goals. Lisa talks plainly and directly so people feel heard and understood in sessions.
Her background includes work as an academic coach and advisor, where she helped students build study habits and stay on track in college. She also worked in vocational rehabilitation, supporting people with disabilities to find meaningful employment. That mix of education, career, and mental health experience informs her practical approach to therapy.
Lisa blends client-centered therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools when they fit a client's needs. She also draws on mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to help with coping skills and decision making. Sessions tend to focus on clear strategies you can try between meetings and on improving communication patterns.
Common concerns she addresses include stress, self esteem, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief and life changes, trauma and abuse, and chronic illness or pain. She also supports people dealing with body image, codependency, divorce and separation, and feelings of isolation.
Lisa encourages small, achievable steps toward life goals. She aims to help people notice patterns that hold them back and build skills to respond differently. Taking the first step can feel hard, and she acknowledges that effort at the start of the process.
