About
Lisa King is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Her life's journey, spanning time living overseas in places like Taiwan and Costa Rica and her own experience healing from trauma, has shaped her into the therapist she is today: honest, direct, compassionate and unwavering in teaching and upholding healthy boundaries.
Lisa founded Formosa Wellness on a core belief: that every one of us possesses a unique and beautiful core, or a "beautiful island," within. Formosa is the historic name for Taiwan, meaning beautiful island, a place that profoundly shaped her upbringing. Lisa is dedicated to helping individuals who have been touched by trauma recover their true authentic selves.

However, if we peel back the layers of what it truly means to value life , we find a much broader, more demanding calling.
