About Lisa

I have spent more than two decades sitting with people in the quiet places of their lives—listening, wondering, and making room for what often goes unheard. My work grows from a simple belief: when we slow down and meet ourselves with presence and compassion, something in us begins to soften, clarify, and unfold.

As a psychologist, I offer a steady, mindful space where stories can be spoken, grief can be tended, identities can be explored, and new possibilities can take root. I draw from relational and depth psychology, the body’s wisdom, and the grounding practices of mindfulness. People often tell me they experience our time together as spacious and calming—an invitation to breathe differently, to notice gently, and to move at the pace their inner life asks for.

My work is also shaped by a deep commitment to justice and our shared humanity. I support people in exploring the ways identity, lived experience, culture, and systems of inequity intersect with their personal stories. Whether through therapy, retreats, or leadership coaching, I hold space for both the inner healing and the outer truths that shape our lives—trusting that awareness, compassion, and courage create pathways toward greater wholeness and collective wellbeing.

My retreat work extends this invitation into community. Through silence, movement, meditation, and time on the land, I create spaces where people can return to themselves—places where the noise settles, the heart remembers, and clarity slowly rises. These retreats remind me, again and again, of the quiet resilience we carry and the deep possibility that emerges when we gather with intention and care.

In leadership coaching, I walk alongside leaders who want to show up with more presence, integrity, and alignment. Together, we explore the inner landscape that shapes their outer actions—supporting them to lead with groundedness, openness, and a commitment to justice and belonging.

Across all these roles, my hope is the same:

to offer a warm, honest, and spacious presence—

a place where people can rest, reconnect, and grow

into lives and work that feel more true, more compassionate,

and more whole.
