Getting to know Lisa Valle

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, LMFT #48969. I am passionate about helping others become emotionally and spiritually free from past and current trauma. My approach is client-centered and trauma-informed. I believe everyone has the potential to grow and achieve any goal with a reframed heart and mindset, once they discover their value, identity, and purpose. I also believe the soul, spirit, and body are connected and all need recovery in each of the parts to thrive as a whole being. My approach I utilize different approaches, depending on the needs of treatment. Here are some of my most utilized modalities: Seeking Safety, Cognitive Behavioral, Interpersonal therapy, Solution focused, and Family systems. My focus I have experience working with all ages from young children to older adults. I especially enjoy working with children over the age of 12, adolescents, and young adults. I have experience working with a range of mental illnesses, as well as dual-diagnosis clients. However, I typically work best with clients who have PTSD, depression, and anxiety disorders. My communication style My communication style and goal for my therapy sessions are to have clients provide 80 percent of the communication and myself bring about 20 percent, giving the clients a chance to process their thoughts and feelings in sessions. My journey to mental healthcare I have overcome many obstacles, and traumatic experiences in my own childhood and adulthood and am passionate about helping others discover their own strengths and weaknesses. I enjoy watching them grow and gain freedom from their wounds of the past. My goals for you I prefer utilizing a strength-based collaborative approach when working on goal setting for clients. Goal setting will start with the client's mental health needs and desires for their treatment, with myself acting as a guide or coach in the process.
