I have lived in various parts of the country, but my family and I have called Colorado home since 2010. I have been in clinical practice for more than 20 years. I am double Board Certified in Psychiatry and Family Practice. I completed my first Master’s Degree in 2000 at Yale University, graduating with Honors. I completed a second graduate degree from the University of Arizona in 2015.

I am passionate about my work as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner because I've always been drawn to learning about people and the things that are most meaningful in their lives. I am so thankful for the opportunity to spend my days focused on people.

I pride myself on being compassionate and attentive. At the core of my clinical approach is the effort to build strong partnerships with my clients to understand and address each person’s unique needs.

“Together, my clients and I discuss the best individualized treatment options according to their priorities and what most benefits their lives.”

Another core element of my clinical practice is to approach each client’s concerns and symptoms from a broad, holistic view. It’s important to me to consider past medical conditions, current life stressors, important relationships and a wide range of treatment modalities (with or without medication) in order to promote long-term mental and physical wellbeing. When appropriate, I use medications carefully with specific objectives at the lowest dose and for the shortest time needed. I view medication as a valuable tool, but not one that excludes other vital elements of the treatment plan.

Apart from the joy and fulfillment I find in my work with clients, I enjoy photography. Since coming to Colorado, I have really appreciated the many days of sunshine and the opportunity to be outdoors for road biking, jogging and swimming. I love spending family time with my wife and teenage twins- talking, watching movies and enjoying great food.

Lisa DeNooy came to Calm Clarity Mental Health in 2021 with over 20 years of experience in the customer service industry. She was born and raised in Kansas but has lived in Colorado since 2004. She received a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology from Kansas State University and a Bachelor’s Degree in Dietetics from Colorado State University, Fort Collins. When she isn’t working, Lisa is usually on a ball field of some sort watching her two boys play sports. She also loves being outdoors, gardening, and hiking!
