Meet Lisa Cobb

Lisa Cobb, LMSW, is a Licensed Social Worker and a Clinical Therapist. Lisa has worked in education as a School Social Worker for over 25 years. Lisa spent ten years working in mental health settings prior to working in education. She also provides therapy as part of a private practice. She is diligent about keeping her skill set fresh and up to date. Lisa specializes in working with those who are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression and are feeling challenged to regulate their emotions, personally or professionally.

Lisa inspires everyone to gently and safely go WITHIN themselves. She encourages you to explore how your perceptions, beliefs and patterns of behavior were developed. She introduces you to parts of yourself. She gently teaches techniques and healthy coping strategies that allow you to release thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are no longer serving you well. “Why do I keep doing that?” “Where does that thought come from.” “Why am I so angry all the time?” “Why can’t I just be happy?”

Lisa received her Master of Social Work Degree from Eastern Michigan University and her Bachelor of Arts Degree from Michigan State University. Lisa is married and is the mother of two young men. She resides on the shores of Lake Michigan. Her family are avid sailors and love to be in the outdoors.

  • Therapist/Counselor

    Lisa has private practice in North Muskegon, Michigan. Her focus is on adults and young adults 16 and older. She has a mission in her life to give people space and time to be seen and heard. She recognizes each person as a sum of their learned experiences (the stories that make us who we are today) and as a part of the human collective (where we each fit in). She believes that we are all have parts of ourselves that are conscious and subconscious. Each part impacts how we attach or do not attach to others. Lisa helps others explore their dependance on each role played in their life each day. She helps others to identify and release biological, genetic, social, psychological, and spiritual parts that no longer serve you positively in your life.

    On her journey through life, Lisa has witnessed life changing transformations, both in herself and with others. She often utilizes the participatory modalities of Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution-focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT/Tapping) and The Body Code, in conjunction with traditional modalities of treatment.
