Lisa Galeucia
MA. LMHC
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, currently practicing at Dayspring Behavioral Health. Along with being a therapist, I consider myself to be a child and teen advocate, a family healer, a feelings ninja, and an expert story listener. I work with clients of all ages, backgrounds, and experiences. My main client population is children, teens, and families, though I do work with
adults of all ages as well.
WHO DO I WORK WITH
To guide my practice, I draw from experience providing emotional, social, and behavioral support in many diverse settings. Throughout my career I’ve held positions that have given me experience with a variety of clients. At the beginning of my career, while doing my Bachelors in Psychology, I worked in the homes and community with clients diagnosed with Autism, sensory processing disorders, and behavioral struggles, ages 2 to 28. Later, I worked in several school settings, Kindergarten through 12th grade, both in the classroom and as a school counselor. In this later work, I provided support for clients with ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar, behavioral issues, family conflict, parenting issues, coping skills, and those struggling with life transitions.
HOW CAN I HELP
I do not believe in a one size fits all approach to therapy. A technique, strategy, or therapeutic approach that works for one client, will not work for everyone. Therefore, I pull from several theories of therapy in order to help clients move towards growth and healing. Along with that, I believe that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important parts of therapy. I hope to hold a space where my clients feel comfortable to explore their feelings, thoughts, relationships, and experiences. I wholeheartedly believe that sometimes you have to “shop around” for the therapist you are going to click with, and that’s okay. I would be honored to be a part of this journey even if only a short time.
MORE ABOUT ME
When not in the office, I spend my time outside typically with my dog, Carbon, friends and/or family, or I am off exploring as I love traveling. When Mother Nature does not agree with this, I spend time curled up with a good book, crafting, listening to records that were passed down from my parents, rock climbing, and trying to keep plants alive.
