Lisabeth Wotherspoon, LICSW

Welcome
Is your youngster or teen moody, angry or easily frustrated? Does he have trouble making or keeping friends? Do you sense these problems are masking excessive worry, anxiety or depression?

Many children benefit from counseling when they are struggling at home or at school. Kids today often need assistance developing skills to improve self-esteem and self-confidence. I can help your child develop a greater expression of happiness and hopefulness. I work with your child individually, but help him or her learn how to share important information with you to improve your relationship.

I specialize in working with children and youth who are anxious or depressed, and help them learn how to feel better both at home and at school. I consult with parents of teens with mild intellectual disability (MR/DD) or autism to develop a plan to help their youngster express themselves more appropriately.


Other areas of expertise include bariatric surgery, gay and lesbian issues, and chronic/terminal illness.

I am confident in my ability to help others feel heard, supported and challenged to make changes in their lives. Complimentary 30 minute consultation is available by phone or in person to see if we would be a good fit for each other.
