As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I’ve worked with many individuals, couples, and families struggling with negative patterns and high conflict.
Do you take care of everyone but yourself? Do your intimate relationships, parenting, career goals, and life in general suck away your mojo? When life feels so demanding that you can't keep up, how do you find your way back to center? Maybe you're struggling not to fight with your partner or children. Maybe you're scared of "not letting anyone down." Maybe the thought of conflict makes you want to throw up. Maybe you have no idea who you are or what you want, but you're ready to explore how you got here. It's not too late to salvage your relationships— or your own sense of self and wellbeing.

I specialize in coaching ADHD adults and couples, and my goal is to help you navigate your challenges and achieve your personal and career goals.
Adults with ADHD tend to have challenges that keep them from attaining their personal life dreams and career success goals. Some of these challenges are distractibility, impulsivity, poor time management, procrastination, overwhelm, disorganization, and clutter. Adults with ADHD also tend to struggle more than others in their careers, in their love and family relationships, with friends, and financially. The good news is that there is hope and resources available to create a more successful, happy, and prosperous life. I specialize in providing ADHD individual coaching, ADHD couples & retreats and webinars for the treatment of ADHD.

I work with individuals and couples and I enjoy using nature, experiential activities, and art in my sessions when appropriate.
I know how difficult it is to sort through the clutter of endless therapy websites while you’re feeling overwhelmed and stuck. How do you find the right therapist when it feels like no one will understand you anyways? Just getting through the day is already hard enough. You have big feelings that you're ashamed of having because it feels like no one else does. Your thoughts are self-critical, making you think you’re not good enough or like you don’t belong. You’re juggling relationships and responsibilities, all while trying to hide that you feel anxious and sad. And all you want is to feel happy and have healthy relationships.

Whether you have been married for 2 months or 20 years, you and your partner are the most important person in each other’s lives.
Marriage is fucking hard. I heard a quote recently where someone asked the secret to making marriage work. The response was, “We never wanted to get divorced at the same time.” Marriage can feel like a roller coaster. Then add the obstacles of children, work schedules and stress, and daily ups and downs and you may find yourself miles apart from your partner. What happened to the fun? What happened to the intimacy and connection? Where the hell did it go? It’s time to make your marriage the priority. It’s time to reconnect and reignite the fire that was once there. It is possible to salvage and repair what has been broken.

I specialize in OCD (ERP, SPACE), couples (Gottman Method—Level 3), and families with kids aged 2-6 (PCIT).
Feeling stuck? Let’s work together to get you moving forward. Whether your mind races with self-doubt, your relationship feels disconnected, or you feel like you're failing as a parent, it's frustrating and exhausting. Maybe you're just drained from having to constantly cope. Or maybe you know something is off and want to figure out what is going on and what you can do about it. You seek answers and relief—peace of mind, stronger connections, practical solutions, or a place of reprieve.

*Trained in Pragmatic Experiential Therapy for Couples (PET-C) by this theory's developer, Dr.
As a trained couples' and family therapist, I use a systemic approach with my clients which emphasizes the development and maintenance of healthy relationships and communication. Evidence-based practices such as cognitive-behavioral/solution focused therapies are examples of the theoretical orientations from which I work. I believe wholeheartedly that change comes from a blend of internal and external factors with a team approach between the therapist and client(s). My philosophy is not to "fix" people, but rather serve as a partner to support my clients toward defining and reaching their expressed personal values and goals.

I approach all clients with a positive, curious attitude and uniquely alter my treatment plan modalities for each individual.

The last thing we wish for in the midst of struggle is to feel shame for our human experiences. We often benefit from having another person to partner with during our healing process. It is especially important that we are in the presence of a person who is genuine in creating a space for us that is safe, inclusive, and nurturing. I admire you for taking this step for yourself and I hope you might find it with me - where I will strive to facilitate an environment where you feel free enough to come as you are. I believe that together we can discover the type of love towards yourself that could lead you to a life filled with joy.

These include, but are not limited to: depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting concerns, adjustment difficulties, sexuality issues, stress and coping, career decision-making, identity, self-esteem, grief/loss, and personal growth.
Sometimes the daily pressures and struggles of life can seem overwhelming, and it may be hard to imagine how things can change. I encourage you to consider investing some time in yourself... to heal, to change, to grow. We can work together to change unhealthy patterns in your life. I can help you develop more effective communication and conflict resolution skills to improve relationships. Together, we can explore the barriers that are keeping you from living the life you want. Most importantly, I will support you on your journey toward wellness - whatever that may look like for you.

I work with adults of all ages and adolescents; providing individual, couples and family therapy.
www.lissafriedman.com - I like to help people find the deep knot of their pattern, gently lovingly untie it, and bring healing to the wound. I have been a therapist for about 30 years, and in private Practice since 1987. While my style is eclectic, it is my warmth, compassion, and acceptance that underlie all of my work. I try to provide an environment, much like a container, for my clients to open to their own natural self compassion and acceptance. Seeing each person as whole, rather than deficient provides an environment for people to come to a natural place of healing.

My clients seek support in understanding complicated relationship dynamics, establishing boundaries where they can thrive, and learning to cultivate loving and healing relationships with themselves and others.
You know relationships are important. You show up. You love hard. You have people's backs. But sometimes you're left wondering... who has your back? You don't want to be a burden—you know other folks have their own problems. But you're pouring out more than you're taking in. You're feeling drained but aren't sure what to do differently. You have an uncanny ability to see and understand other folks' needs. Your own? Huh. Come to think of it, what are your needs?

Building your relational skill set can aid you with all your interactions: from strangers, acquaintances, and co-workers, to friends, family, your children, and your lover.

My work combines insight and intuition with a warm, open, and interactive style.

I am here to provide a safe therapeutic relationship to begin processing trauma, exploring behavior patterns that are not serving you, and process mental health, substance or process addiction, and interpersonal concerns.
Do you feel disconnected, isolated, and alone in your struggles? You may be feeling hopeless, exhausted, and overwhelmed, and like everything you've tried to fix the problems you're facing work for a short time, but don't seem to "stick". Are you attempting to mask or numb emotions through substance use, unhealthy relationships, or other self-medicating behaviors? do you feel like something from your past is holding you back from being in tune with the present?
