About us
Lydia Missal
LCPC-S, EMDR CERTIFIED, ADVENTURE-BASED PSYCHOTHERAPIST, WFR, OWNER/CLINICIAN
Do you seek to be transformed through the therapeutic process? If so, Lydia Missal, adventure-based psychotherapist, graduate of Prescott College, might be the right fit for you.
Lydia has an open, inviting, and grounding presence. She specializes in trauma-informed practices as an EMDR certified therapist, adventure and nature-based interventions, resilience, mindfulness, and creative expression.
Therapeutically, she’s passionate about collaborating with her clients on helping them access the flow state inside and outside of the office while weaving in a sense of humor. She loves connecting with humans at all stages of their life journey.
Personally, she loves all types of adventure that involve physical movement, travel, her two doggies Lola and Dash, and spending time with her husband, family and friends.
She usually accesses the flow state through physical movement such as climbing or endurance events. She knows she’s in the Flow State because she feels alive, energetic, content, connected, calm and secure.
