Lisa Burress, LICSW, RPT

About Me

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, a Child Mental Health Specialist, and a Registered Play Therapist.

​

I provide in-person counseling services in Bremerton, WA and via telehealth anywhere in Washington state.

My experience includes working with adults, teenagers, children, and families. I hold the belief that each person is an expert in their life and approach treatment from a strength-based perspective. As a result, I use a collaborative process to develop treatment goals that fit realistic outcomes likely to be achieved through therapy. My goal is to walk alongside you in whatever you may be going through, to provide a safe space to process thoughts and emotions, share useful resources, and assist you in obtaining the knowledge necessary to make informed decisions to enhance your own well-being.

My focus includes mood and behavior management, depression, anxiety, relationship problems, divorce and separation, trauma, crisis intervention, foster care and adoption, parenting skills, and working with children and adults with developmental disabilities. I have completed training in many therapeutic interventions including trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, child parent relationship training, collaborative problem solving, motivational interviewing, solution-focused brief therapy, play therapy, and more.

I maintain a Facebook page and Instagram account with resources on intentional living, responsive parenting, cultivating meaningful relationships, personal growth and more.
