Lisa Kennedy, LICSW

Psychotherapist
MA
Hi there, I'm Lisa! I'm Lisa Kennedy, a Licensed Independent Certified Social Worker with over 18 years of experience, including 12 years working with the military and in private practice. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. I consider myself a Behavioral Therapist and believe there’s always a way to make positive changes in our lives by adjusting our thoughts, actions, and reactions to life’s transitions and challenges. My approach As a behavioral therapist, I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solutions Focused Therapy in treatment. My focus I enjoy working with individuals and couples and have supported many people through common daily challenges. My communication style I strive to be warm, inviting, honest, ethical, non-judgmental, and empowering in my work with clients. My journey to mental healthcare I became a social worker during a difficult divorce, wanting to make a difference in my children’s lives. Returning to school, I realized I had always been a social worker at heart—concerned with social justice and change, and with empowering individuals to live fulfilling lives. This has been my mission for over 20 years. I’ve worked in various settings and with diverse age groups, but private practice is where my heart truly lies. My goals for you I want my clients to feel empowered to set their own treatment goals. Goal setting is a shared commitment between client and therapist, built on trust and aimed at achieving positive change. My first session with you I understand the first session can feel intimidating. I aim to be engaging and supportive to help put you at ease from the start.
