Meet Your Therapist

Lisa Benson, LCSW, CWC

Hi! My name is Lisa. I am a wife and mother of three wonderful (and exhausting) children. I enjoy traveling and being active. That is why wellness and health are an integral part of my therapeutic process. I enjoy hiking and running. I’ve done a multitude of races from 5ks to marathons.

I earned a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Texas at Austin in 2014. Since then, I’ve spent some time being a stay-at-home parent and have transitioned back and forth into the working world. I’ve previously worked in NY as a community-based therapist providing mental health services to families involved with CPS. I’ve also worked in a hospital setting as a social worker. I transitioned into the world of private practice in 2020.

As your therapist, I am here to support you in your journey to become your best self. Along the way, I will challenge you, push you outside of your comfort zone at times, but do so in a caring way. I also would like to think I have a good sense of humor so you will certainly hear me crack a few jokes one in a awhile. I enjoy what I do. I enjoy working with my clients. And I look forward to seeing what we can achieve together.
