Therapist in Peoria, Illinois Lisa Fix, Therapist

Lisa Fix, LCPC
Hello. I am a licensed clinical professional counselor with over 30 years of experience. I had a difficult upbringing and needed to do my own work in therapy, so I know what it can be like to be in the “other chair.” I will meet you where you are and strive for you to feel seen and heard.
I received a Master of Science degree in Clinical Psychology from Illinois State University. I am qualified to work with a full gamut of issues including depression, anxiety, stress, grief, adjustment problems, relationship/family issues and struggling with sense of self.
My specialization is eating disorders, having worked at a hospital-based treatment center for 20 years. I also enjoy working with “emerging adults” which I did for 14 years at a university counseling center. I can help with parenting, mid-life issues and aging. I conceptualize a person’s care in a holistic way and my approach is integrative in that I pull from different modalities which are evidence-based for your unique presentation. I am trauma-informed, use the HAES paradigm, subscribe to body neutrality, am an LGBTQ ally and have worked with people from many walks of life, ethnicities and spiritual traditions. I think you will find me compassionate, easy-going, supportive and safely challenging. You can always ask me questions and I will switch gears if you feel you aren’t getting what you need from our work together. I am committed to helping you reach your goals.
