Testimonials

“I came to consultation with a grab bag of CBT tools that weren’t really working for my clients; what I got was a deeper understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of these interventions which has helped me to use them in more appropriate and effective ways. My case conceptualization and treatment planning have greatly improved as a result of my time in consultation at Santa Rosa Center for CBT. Litsa is warm and direct, modeling how one can bring CBT to clients with heart and clarity. She is a great teacher who shares her wealth of clinical knowledge in a friendly and collaborative fashion.  I always felt heard and my questions were always answered thoughtfully and fully.”

Therapist in Private Practice

“Litsa is an expert clinician with a gift for sharing her knowledge of OCD and anxiety disorders. Her strength is her ability to teach complex clinical concepts in a clear and accessible way. Working with Litsa, my case conceptualization skills improved considerably. I gained theoretical knowledge about OCD and anxiety disorders and learned practical strategies for implementing CBT interventions with my clients. My experience with Litsa was a fantastic learning opportunity that positively impacted client outcomes. I loved learning from her.”

CAREER CHANGING CONSULTATION

“I met Litsa Tanner in 2011 shortly after opening a private practice and struggling to stay committed and consistent in a CBT treatment approach. After listening to her do a basic CBT training, I approached her and told her, “You talk like I think, and I need to spend time with you so that I can learn to deliver what’s in my head!”

I have spent time with Litsa now for 10 years in individual and group consultation on clinical issues and cases and well as in practice management.

Not only have I learned how to deliver evidence based, CBT treatment in my practice, I now have a group CBT practice where I am training other therapists with the same hunger to deliver effective treatment, often quoting, and repeating what I have learned from Litsa.

Litsa is a true expert and respected colleague in our community. She is patient and kind while delivering sharp feedback and guidance in CBT treatment approaches. She has also been instrumental in introducing me to other influential practitioners in the community for consultation and training.

My career, fulfillment and satisfaction in the work I do, and the lives of my clients have been undoubtedly influenced and enhanced under Litsa’s consultation and guidance.”
