Lisa McNelley Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #156096
I work with adults and teens 16+ navigating some of life's most challenging moments — and with women in their 40s and beyond who are reimagining who they are and what they want. Whether you're facing midlife transitions, an empty nest, the weight of caregiving, or simply asking who am I now? — I bring both clinical training and lived experience to that conversation.
My approach is integrative and tailored to you. Drawing on family systems, attachment, psychodynamic, narrative, Gestalt, CBT, and trauma-informed frameworks, I work from the belief that there is no one-size-fits-all path to healing. Together, we'll find the lens and tools that fit your life and your needs.
I bring warmth, directness, and humor to the work — because sometimes the most healing moments happen when you find yourself laughing through the tears. I am not an expert in your life. You are. I'm here to collaborate with you, and to help you untangle what's keeping you stuck so you can feel more hopeful, more grounded, and more alive.

Janie Venturina
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Parents of tweens and teens rarely call because of one clear problem. They call because something shifted, their kid stopped talking, and the house feels tense in a way it did not last year. I work with tweens and teens between 11 and 18 who are anxious, down on themselves, quick to anger, or struggling with friendships, and I work with their parents at the same time. Before joining Evidence Based Psychological Care I spent a year and a half as a school-based therapist, which means I have watched these patterns play out during the school day and not only in a parent's description of them. In session I am active rather than quiet. We name what sets a teen off, we build skills they will use, and we work on what happens at home. I have appointments after school, in the evening, and on Saturday mornings, and I can usually see a new family within the week.
