Master of Social Work

Hello, I am Yalisa, a mental health therapist. I offer therapy services at our Lawrence, MA clinic.

I am a compassionate bilingual (English/Spanish) mental health clinician who values cultural diversity and the unique experiences that shape each person. I provide therapeutic care, crisis intervention, individual and group therapy, and case management for adolescents and adults. My approach is compassionate, culturally responsive, and focused on helping clients build resilience, gain insight, and move toward lasting wellness. Together, we can work toward understanding your experiences and strengthening the skills needed for a healthier, more balanced life.

My approach includes Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, CBT, TF-CBT, play therapy, and elements of art therapy. I help clients build communication and coping skills so they can face life’s challenges with greater confidence and self-compassion while working toward lasting wellness.

Please know you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Reaching out can be a courageous first step. Together, we can work on building communication and coping skills to help you face challenges with greater confidence and self-compassion. I would be honored to support you and look forward to walking alongside you on your journey to wellness.
