Bios for our HBCC Support Team

Dr. Jolee Hibbard, PsyD

Psychologist, CPS Trained

 I partner with individuals and families to create personalized treatment plans that illuminate the path forward. My approach is grounded in a core belief: strong, authentic connections are essential to healing.

My Approach

Using evidence-based therapies—including collaborative problem solving, EMDR and acceptance and commitment therapy—I help clients build the skills and insights needed to create meaningful change. I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, autism, and trauma.

Supporting Families & Neurodivergent Communities

I specialize in helping parents, caregivers, and spouses of individuals with mental health concerns. My focus is on equipping you to better care for yourself, advocate effectively for your loved one's needs, and communicate with clarity and compassion.

As a parent myself, I understand the unique challenges families face. I'm the author of The Language of Advocacy workbook and workshop series, teaching parents how to speak up for their children. I have also served on the board of Helping the Behaviorally Challenging Child (HBCC) and currently facilitate support groups through NAMI Orange County.

Experience You Can Trust

I hold doctoral and master's degrees in clinical psychology from Azusa Pacific University and Pepperdine University, with training at Pacific Clinics, UC Irvine Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente. My research includes co-authoring a case study on effective trauma treatment modalities.

I am a contracted provider with several EAP providers including Lyra, Spring Health, BHS, and CuraLink.

Let's start with a conversation. I offer a free consultation to discuss your unique needs and explore how we can work together

Lisa Pierro ICF ACC

Life Coach, Certified Coach, CPS Trained

 

Lisa Pierro is a Certified Coach through the International Coaching Federation, author, and creator of Calming Your Inner Critic to Stay Regulated. She helps parents of challenging kids, adults with ADHD, and individuals seeking self-growth transform reactive patterns into calm, connected responses that bring more peace and understanding into their relationships.


Lisa’s coaching approach is deeply aligned with the Collaborative Problem Solving® (CPS) philosophy, the foundation of Helping the Behaviorally Challenging Child. She has completed advanced CPS training through Think:Kids at Massachusetts General Hospital, integrating its principles of empathy, skill-building, and collaboration into her coaching practice.


Grounded in decades of professional leadership and community involvement, Lisa brings warmth, understanding, and practical wisdom to her work. A lifelong learner, she has completed extensive training through Positive Intelligence®, Wisdom of the Whole Coaching, and advanced studies in embodiment and energy-focused approaches and continues to expand her expertise through ongoing ADHD coach certification.


Lisa believes that each of us is worthy and capable of rediscovering the calm and compassion that live beneath our protective layers—because when we reconnect with our authentic, caring selves, we change not only how we show up, but the energy in our homes and relationships. 

 Helping the Behaviorally Challenging Child (HBCC) is a California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation whose mission is to enable children experiencing behavioral health challenges to lead more productive and inclusive lives.  We work to transform these children's lives by deepening adults’ understanding of their behaviors, and promoting effective interventions that focus on connectedness, collaboration, and inclusion.
