About Lisa O'Dell (She/Her)

Seeking therapy is a courageous first step toward creating a healthier, more fulfilling life. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, addiction, or a major life transition, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process that helps you better understand yourself, recognize patterns that no longer serve you, and develop practical tools to create lasting change. Together we’ll build on your strengths while addressing the obstacles that keep you feeling stuck.

I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment while also offering honest feedback and practical strategies to help you reach your goals. Clients often tell me they leave sessions feeling understood, empowered, and hopeful.

I use an individualized approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy to meet each client’s unique needs.

I had an excellent first session with Lisa and I am very excited that I am working with her. She’s intuitive, insightful and direct. I highly recommend her if you are looking to rewrite your personal narrative and view things in your life from a new perspective. She guided me to a couple of very profound realizations in just our first session. I felt welcomed and at ease and even though I’m a verbal processor and a narrator, she is strong a kept us on track and in sync. I highly recommend Lisa O’Dell.

After a miserable experience with BetterHelp (recommended by relatives) LifeStance was a welcome and seamless pathway to therapy. Where BH refused to communicate via telephone LifeStance was very accommodating and easy to navigate. And Lisa O’Dell made my introduction to therapy non-judgmental or scary. I’m looking forward to my next visit with her.
