Why I Give: Dr. Lisa Damour

Renown psychologist Lisa Damour helps teens and their families thrive.  

It’s difficult to say where some people might be without psychologist Dr. Lisa Damour’s work. The New York Times best-selling author of “Untangled: Guiding Teenage Girls Through the Seven Transitions into Adulthood” has spent her career tending to the mental health of teenagers and their caregivers and providing the support needed to raise productive and thriving adults. But there is no doubt where Damour, a Shaker Heights resident, would be.
