Meet our Northfield Office

LISA MALECHA, MA, LPCC, CHILD & FAMILY COUNSELOR

I have a special heart for children, teens, parents and families. In working with me, I hope you will feel heard and welcomed. I am calm and patient in my approach and I understand that most issues are complicated. I focus on the systems of people you engage in beyond the problems you’re experiencing today. I partner with you and your family to help you move toward insight, hope, and healing.

I have spent 20+ years serving students in the public school setting, primarily students with learning struggles, developmental delays and behavioral issues. I am experienced in creating plans for youth living with ASD, ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Bullying…I am creative and interactive in my approach.

I love to scrapbook, and relax with our family cat and I love water – pools, rivers, lakes and the ocean. I believe floating in a pool is the best exercise ever! My husband and I have three boys. Our oldest, who we lost through a stillbirth, would be 20. We also have an 18 year old and a 17 year old who are swimmers!

I am a small town girl with a strong foundation in my Christian faith and I would feel honored to join you on your path to greater connection and personal wellness.
