Client Testimonials
"I have been meeting with Lisa every week for almost 3 years and it has been a really invaluable experience for me. Lisa made me feel safe from day one and I felt I could tell her anything. She has a great sense of humor that makes you feel well at ease and her faith in God is genuine and inspiring as well as knowing the bible incredibly well. Her exceptional EMDR skills have helped me so much also. The best part of our sessions are when she prays for me at the end. I have grown so much since seeing Lisa and I would highly recommend her to anyone."
After 25 years of marriage, our relationship started to fray. It’s difficult to share personal problems with someone new. Lisa listened carefully to build a relationship of trust with both of us, and then she started to suggest reasonable & practical solutions. Her tremendous empathy, abundant patience and gentle confrontation helped us define our problems.
Lisa has been particularly helpful with navigating conflicts in our extended family. She helped mend our relationship as a couple and now we are in a better position to face concerns inside & outside of our marriage together.
I began seeing Lisa McCartney in late 2022 after a truly catastrophic traumatic event that altered our family's life. I was suffering severe grief, PTSD and Major Depression. I found her to be compassionate, kind and skilled at helping me navigate many layers of grief and trauma. Sometimes we used EMDR, sometimes we sat in the ashes. I have found her to be a consistent, wise and exceptionally professional therapist who allows the process of healing to unfold with encouragement and sincere support.
I have been working with Lisa for a few years and am so grateful that God brought her into my life. She affirms me in who I am now while she challenges me to grow. She helps illuminate when I am telling myself an old narrative that I don't need to accept anymore. I feel that she really cares for me. While there may be tears during our session, there are always smiles and even laughter. I feel lighter when I leave from our time together and always look forward to processing life with her at my next appointment. Lisa has helped my faith grow as I have been better able to accept my identity as a beloved child of God.
