Lisa Blackwell

My name is Lisa Blackwell. I’m a licensed mental health counselor in Ohio. I’ve been practicing here in Stark county for 6 years. I’ve worked with veterans, their families, high risk teenagers, and I’ve supported those struggling with addiction (inpatient rehab) as well as working in community mental health. I am currently in private practice, where I specialize in supporting the LGBTQ+ community and Women who struggle with understanding their negative self-talk and beliefs that lead to feelings of anxiety, stress and self-doubt. I focus on helping clients with personal empowerment through guided self discovery, encouraging their connection to nature, encouraging mindfulness and helping to process trauma/grief. My goal with every client is to develop a profound sense of self, increase resilience and create inclusive communities by living their truth.

When I’m not in session, I enjoy spending time with my partner and our dogs, hiking and biking. I am an avid reader with a preference for fantasy stories with strong women leads. My partner and I also enjoy watching scifi and anime. Occasionally my partner even manages to drag me into his gaming world. I love practicing yoga. I am fascinated by crystals and tarot and I’m currently educating myself about essential oils and herbs.
