"Joy does not simply happen to us.
We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day."
--Henri Nouwen
I love working with women ages 25-45
who struggle with anxiety, depression, and stress that has taken over their life.
Many clients find it helpful to bring their faith and relationship with God into the counseling room; although, this is not a requirement for working with me. When invited, I love to pray during sessions, utilize the Bible, and invite the Holy Spirit to bring wisdom, encouragement, and healing.
My counseling approach is relational and approachable. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment while using my training and experience to offer insight, gentle challenge, and practical tools—so meaningful change, relief, and breakthrough can take place.

Lisa Robinson
Christian Counselor,
Licensed Professional Counselor in Missouri.
​​Are you drowning in anxiety that keeps you up at night?
Do you struggle to shut down your brain and stop your thoughts from swirling with worries and fears?
​
Are stress and depression eating you up inside?
Are you afraid to tell people that you're really not "fine." That you're actually feeling very overwhelmed, numb, and paralyzed by all the emotions swirling inside of you that you don't fully understand and don't know how to describe.
​
Maybe it's time you stop facing it alone.
Experiencing feelings of anxiety, stress, and depression are a normal and valid part of life. However, you are not meant to live there everyday! You can experience freedom, healing, and learn to grab onto hope and joy in this life.
​
I'm a Counselor who longs to help others discover hope and joy and to move forward into a life filled with purpose. I do this in the following ways:
-
I collaborate with you to fully understand all you are experiencing on a daily basis.
-
I help you learn healthy ways to cope with anxiety, stress, and depression.
-
I help you discover the motivation and drive that will allow you to take those steps.
-
We work together to set healthy boundaries around your time, energy, and focus.
-
I walk with you to support you as you discover your identity based on life values and how to live in the best version of yourself.
-
I combine this with a faith-based approach for those wanting to incorporate Biblical values.

After surviving the tragic & unexpected loss of my husband in 2013, moving through my own journey of suffering and counseling, I discovered a new purpose & direction in my life. I decided to pursue & complete my Master's in Counseling through Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, which I completed in May 2020.
​
I completed my supervision and gained my License in Professional Counseling (LPC) in October 2022. I am very excited to get to know you, collaborate to work towards your counseling and life goals, and help you discover the person you long to be.
​
Life is an ongoing journey of trials and challenges that cannot be avoided. You are not alone on this journey. I am here to help guide you, find coping skills, and help you find healing and wholeness.

I utilize the following types of therapies: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Motivational Interviewing, and integrate them with a Christian, Biblical worldview.
