Lisa Macias, PhD, Psychologist #32178 

Clinical Director, Mindful Child & Family Therapy

Lisa Macias, PhD, is a Licensed Psychologist and Clinical Director at Mindful Child & Family Therapy, where she also serves as a supervisor for clinicians in training. She works with adults, couples, adolescents, and emerging adults in Los Altos and San Jose, bringing over two decades of experience in education and mental health.

Lisa is a Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist and Level 2 trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS). She specializes in supporting clients through anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, substance use challenges, life transitions, and relational difficulties. Fluent in both English and Spanish, she is committed to culturally sensitive care that honors each client’s background and lived experience.

Her therapeutic style is collaborative, relational, and strengths‑based. Lisa often integrates psychodynamic and attachment‑based frameworks with IFS and EFT to help clients explore different “parts” of themselves, deepen self‑understanding, and foster healing in relationships. She believes therapy can be a bridge from isolation and distress toward clarity, connection, and meaning — and values the role of humor and perspective in the process of change.
