Bio
Lisa Noshay Petro, alumna (’98) and Director of UC Law SF Disability Resource Program, has worked with students in law, psychology, and other professional programs for twenty years in both public and private postsecondary institutions. She works with over 200 law students with disabilities each year, counseling many of them on stress reduction, emotion regulation, and disability symptom management skills. Prior to this work, she had over ten years’ experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families in various special education and social service settings in Arizona, California, and the New York metropolitan area. Lisa is a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community and believes her disabilities give her superpowers. In addition to her role at UC Law San Francisco, Lisa is an associate clinical social worker (ACSW) providing disability- and LGBTQIA-affirming psychotherapy fully remotely for the LA LGBT Center. In her spare time (what spare time?) she enjoys hiking, cooking, and reading.
