About

Lisa is a Registered Psychologist, Yoga Teacher (IYTA), certified Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction Teacher (Brown University, USA), Mindful Self-Compassion facilitator and emerging Insight Meditation Dharma Teacher. Lisa works in private practice in Coffs Harbour and offers sessions online via Zoom. She teaches regularly at retreats, and as an Adjunct Lecturer at Charles Sturt University, she has taught mindfulness and intensive retreats for post-graduate students.

Lisa has an interest in the conjunction of western science, buddhadharma, and earth-based wisdom traditions in health, prevention, healing, and trauma recovery that merges with a personal practice of yoga and meditation established over 20 years. She facilitates Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction, Mindful Self-Compassion, and Yoga for Trauma Recovery Groups.

Lisa creatively blends healing practices that draw on modern psychology and ancient wisdom teachings as a path to cultivate mental, emotional, and physical balance.

In private practice, Lisa integrates mindfulness-based therapies with other therapies in working individually with clients. Lisa is registered to provide individual sessions through Medicare, Victims Services, and WorkCover. She also provides clinical supervision and mentoring.

“My aspiration is to support people through an alchemy of ancient wisdom teachings and modern science, and to cultivate inner and outer balance in meeting the social and environmental challenges we face collectively on the planet.”

PERSONAL INSIGHT

What is a quote or phrase you live by?
“The world is not a problem to be solved; it is a living being to which we belong. The world is part of our own self and we are a part of its suffering wholeness. Until we go to the root of our image of separateness, there can be no healing. And the deepest part of our separateness from creation lies in our forgetfulness of its sacred nature, which is also our own sacred nature.” — Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee
