Getting to know Lisa Pedersen

Lisa became a therapist because of her genuine desire to understand people, support them through life’s challenges, and help them recognize strengths they may not always see in themselves. She is passionate about creating a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and accepted without judgment. Lisa recognizes how life experiences, relationships, and personal circumstances shape the way people see themselves and navigate the world. Through therapy, she helps clients gain insight, develop healthy coping skills, strengthen their relationships, and build the confidence needed to create a life that aligns with their values and goals. She particularly enjoys working with individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, and the stress of balancing multiple responsibilities. Lisa’s therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, and compassionate, meeting clients where they are while helping them identify their needs, recognize patterns, and find practical ways to move forward. She is especially passionate about supporting individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about their next steps, helping them develop healthier coping strategies, strengthen self-advocacy, and build emotional resilience. Known for her ability to listen beyond words and recognize underlying needs, Lisa combines empathy and curiosity with thoughtful guidance and gentle challenges when appropriate. She believes therapy is not about telling clients who they should be, but empowering them to better understand themselves and discover their own path forward. Her goal is for clients to leave sessions feeling heard, grounded, and equipped with greater clarity, confidence, and hope for the future. Lisa earned her master’s degree from Southern New Hampshire University. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate LPCA #10107 and practices under the supervision of Renee Cross, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC 37PC00937400).
