Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Lisa Bove, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and also a non-judgmental Christian minister based in Southern California. With nearly three decades of experience, I’m here to support individuals from all walks of life, including those in the LGBTQI+ community, as they navigate the challenges of grief, anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship struggles. I also specialize in end of life issues. I know how difficult it can be to reach out, but I’m committed to creating a safe, welcoming space where you can feel truly heard and supported.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in being present for all of my clients as they overcome personal challenges using a holistic, client-centered approach tailored to your unique needs. Together, we’ll explore strategies rooted in your strengths to address not just your immediate concerns but also the deeper biological, psychological, social, and spiritual aspects of your well-being.

What you can expect from me

Imagine waking up feeling lighter, with a renewed sense of clarity and confidence to tackle life’s hurdles. My goal is to help you achieve that by working collaboratively toward your healing and growth. Ready to take the first step? Book a session today—I’d be honored to support you on your journey.
