The idea that would not go away

Pop Culture Counseling started as a name that kept popping up.

When Lisa first started thinking about private practice, the name Pop Culture Counseling kept coming to mind. It felt too obvious to be available, but it was — and here we are.

Lisa identifies as a Disney Adult, Potter Head, and all-around geek. She is fluent in video game terms, Disney song lyrics, and light saber colors.
