Individual Sessions are the primary way people participate in this work. 


As more people seek alternative approaches to healing conflict in their relationships and families, Lisa also offers:


Couples Sessions

Family Work


For an immersive experience, Lisa offers individual intensive retreats.


Meditation and process groups are offered throughout the year (check the calendar from time to time or contact Lisa). 


All of the work intends for deep shifts in consciousness and incorporates your body's wisdom, awareness of your energy system, and physical, emotional, mental and spiritual integration. 


SELF EXPLORATION


What ails me? Asking yourself this question alone will begin the process!

What is your intention to live in your body, to hear it's message to you?

What is your inner resistance to change?

How are you called to express yourself?

How do you feel about your humanity and interdependence?

What are your unexplored resources for healing?

What is your innate knowing?

Can you fully allow your cycles of creativity and regeneration, with patience and discernment?


TRANSFORMATION


Openings for personal transformation, healing and awakening often show up in our lives as physical illness, addictions, harsh self-judgments, relationship conflicts, emotional pain, creative and spiritual longings, or a desire to heal family woundings.  Depression, anxiety, and body issues can also lead us deeper into ourselves. Old or recent trauma, grief through loss of a loved one, divorce or separation, or the dying process can also initiate a profound healing cycle.


BENEFITS


The experiential nature of this work intends for deep shifts in consciousness - the level from which outer life change is then possible. This work is highly individual - and people experience different degrees of subtle internal shifts as well as outer recognizable life changes.  Several clients have shared their impressions of what has shifted in their inner and outer lives as a result of this work. You are encouraged to read their statements on the Clients Share page.


During the course of working together, some common benefits include creating one's life rather than reacting to circumstances (also called co-creation), making intentional life changes, greater compassion for your deep resistance to change, and the willingness to release this resistance, a felt sense of when you are being authentic, acceptance of your vulnerability and human needs, curiosity rather than dread in looking at what is showing up in your life, discernment in your decisions, willingness to 'hear' your body, grounded stability and access to your innate knowing. 


Beyond this, the demands of personal transformation work are amply rewarded, over time, with increased compassion, for one's self and others who are suffering, presence, connection, fulfillment, creativity, vitality, generosity, an expanded sense of what is possible and joy - attached to nothing in particular. 


SPECIALIZATION


While our lives, struggles and cultural backgrounds may look very different on the surface, at the basic human level, our needs for safety, to be seen, to be enough, for authentic creative expression - these needs are the same for all.  I don't specialize in any particular issue or manifestation. I meet you on the human level and explore how these basic unmet needs are uniquely playing out in your life.


'Specialization tends to limit the field of problems that the specialist is concerned with - something over here, something over there that he has learned from another specialist. So the generalist gets into a range of other problems that are genuinely more human than specifically cultural.' - Joseph Campbell


BRENNAN HEALING SCIENCE®


Is a system of energy work combining hands on healing techniques and psycho-spiritual process work for personal evolution. It was developed by Barbara Ann Brennan, a pioneer in working with the Human Energy Field (HEF).  We all have an energy field where dis-ease and issues exist before they appear in our bodies and lives.  Brennan Practitioners are trained to use ordinary sense perception (5 senses) and high sense perception (HSP) to detect energetic flows and imbalances.  Practitioners have studied anatomy and physiology and psychological character defenses.  The work restores your natural ability to heal.


PHYSICAL ILLNESS


Energy therapy effectively supports healing during physical illness. Before, during and after surgery or medical procedures, energy therapy generally reduces recovery time and the need for pain medication.  It redirects your focus inward (away from taking care of others) - making it easier to meet your physical, emotional and spiritual needs while you are healing.
