Facing something hard, whether for yourself or for your child? I’m Lisa Barrett, and I practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor in Manchester, Connecticut. I’m trained in art therapy, and I believe each person is able to heal by themselves.
In a safe setting, I use art therapy, expressive arts techniques, psychotherapy and mindfulness-based practices to help clients reconnect their inner and outer selves and heal wounds. I hold that art therapy builds insight, resilience and self-esteem and supports emotional regulation.
I work with children, individuals, families and groups, in person and through online therapy. Concerns I address include trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), autism and emotional regulation. I also wrote a book of simple daily tools covering the basics of reframing, and I teach clients tools they can use in real time.
