Lisa Lott

Hi! I’m Lisa Lott. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, but you can also call me a parent supporter, a behavior calmer, trauma tamer and attachment builder. I specialize in working with young children, from birth to 5, and their parents. I can help you and your child navigate behavioral challenges, cope with transitions like divorce, the birth of a new sibling, going to a new school or the death of a loved one. In essence, my goal is to help you and your child thrive together.

We all have preconceived notions of what our relationship with our children will be like, and when reality doesn’t quite match up it can create distress. By helping you understand your child’s behaviors and emotions, learning the stages of emotional development, and practicing responding in a way that helps them learn self control, I can help you create the relationship with your child that you’ve always wanted.

Therapy with adults and children look very different. While I do request some parent only sessions, when working with children I approach it from their level of understand, play. Play therapy is proven to help children learn how to interact with others and cope with difficult emotions. In addition to play therapy I use Child-Parent Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR and other strength based approaches to help you meet your goals.
