Pennington & Associates,
PLLC is dedicated to promoting positive social, emotional,
and academic success in every child we have the privilege to

child's unique strengths and providing tools to compensate
for their areas of weakness, we aspire to unveil every child's
true potential.
● Lisa
Pennington, Ph.D.
Growing
up in Bluefield, West Virginia I was fortunate enough to
have received my undergraduate degree from West Virginia
University and received my doctoral degree from the University
of South Florida.
As a parent of
two extraordinary boys, Jacob and Mikah play an integral
part of who I am. Every single day my
children remind me of the importance of parenting and how it
affects the development of a child.
As a Licensed
Psychologist and Certified School Psychologist, my goal is
to reach as many children as possible in a positive way to
promote academic and social success.
I truly believe
that by providing parents and educators with the understanding
of every child�s unique
attributes, we can foster positive adult-child interactions that
help develop confident, motivated, successful, and happier children.
If I am successful
at promoting my own children and other children�s
life ambitions, self-confidence, and the skills to be a positive
person, I feel that I have fulfilled my goals as both a mother
and a professional.
Throughout the
years in developing Lisa Pennington & Associates,
I have established unique treatment protocols and comprehensive
educational learning assessments through research-based techniques. Utilizing
the same protocols and tools in understanding children, my
associates and I can reach more children and their families.
