Lisa Stevens

Clinical Intern at the Nashville Office

 

Everyone is capable of healing and growth. It’s easier to walk the path with someone else than to do it alone.

 

Hi, my name is Lisa and I would be honored to work with you. When we meet, you will find someone who cares about you and believes in your innate capacity to heal and grow. Together we will create a safe space to explore your feelings, thoughts and behaviors. In addition to compassion and understanding, I will also provide you with evidence-based interventions and fresh insight so that we can find solutions for whatever issues you are experiencing. My goal is to assist you with developing healthier coping skills and gain insight that will help you feel empowered and more connected with your true Self. We will work as a team to challenge any limiting beliefs, maladaptive coping mechanisms and/or behaviors that are getting in the way of making positive changes in your life. I believe that when given the right resources and safe space, the mind, body and spirit have an incredible capacity to heal.

Clinical Experience

My clinical experience has been in psychiatric outpatient, academic, and private practice settings. My favorite therapeutic approaches utilize emotion-focused, somatic-based and trauma-informed interventions that address the mind, body, and spirit. In addition to understanding how interventions can be effectively tailored to my clients, I also bring my former career in the entertainment industry and creative arts to my clinical practice, which allows me think outside the box and find innovative solutions to any problem. I am confident in my ability to provide compassionate care to help you achieve your goals.

Clinical Specialties

My areas of special interest are anxiety and depression, trauma, attachment wounds, codependency, self-worth issues, dysfunctional family systems, families impacted by addiction, and grief/loss. I enjoy working with individuals and couples, as well as family systems and groups. My theoretical perspective is influenced by experiential therapy, the Internal Family Systems model (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Common Factors, Bowenian Family Systems, and solution focused techniques with an integrative approach.
