Profile

Lise has worked in mental healthcare for 14 years and with the MH&W program for 2. Lise’s approach to treatment is person-centered and integrative. That means that she focuses on helping students cultivate their strengths and find more effective ways to cope with challenges. Lise thinks that it is when we feel safe, understood, and valued that we are able to take the risks that can lead to real positive changes; so she strives to create a counseling environment where clients feel both nurtured and challenged.

Lise enjoys trying new recipes, hiking, and reading good novels

Lise loves her work because she feels really honored when clients trust her enough to share their stories with her and allow her to offer real support. It is genuinely fulfilling to see clients begin to feel more hopeful about the future and more able to cope with the challenges that they are facing now. Lise is really grateful to have the job with the mental health & wellness program.
