About me
Struggling with self-confidence and feelings of loss and grief? Accepting new clients and supervisees.
I help you feel at home and build a support structure that you can take with you wherever you are. By talking and working creatively with body and mind, we can get to the heart of what matters and help you find the resources you long for.
I support many kinds of clients, lately they are often
*Digital nomads, Expats, Adult Third Culture Kids wanting to navigate and adjust to a different environments, cultures and languages?
*Womb twin survivors and Adult IVF survivors looking for support with a therapist who gets it? Someone who won't judge the for feeling crazy.
Send me a message and I will reply to arrange a free consultation and see if we are a good fit. Please check your spam folders if you are waiting on a reply- sometimes my emails end up there. Feel free to read more below. I look forward to connecting, Lisa

Training, qualifications & experience
- Private practitioner with ADMP UK since 2018
- MA Dance Movement Psychotherapy 2011
- Supervision training CSTD 2021
- Certified Embodiment Coach 2023
- One to one experience in private practice and group experience within organisations.
My background in drama and the creative arts as well as my travels around the world and brief Tai-chi practice very much inform my approach to therapy. I was born in South Africa surrounded by a variety of cultures, faith beliefs and world views. I have also lived in both the UK and Europe and in other countries for a few months at a time. I am open for you to share your faith (be it Christian or any other), spirituality and worldviews in the sessions if you like, as they can offer support and impact upon our struggles within life's journey. Equally, this may not be something you need to share as part of our therapy work.
I have had experience with clients of all ages, my current private practice focuses on working with over 18's. Clients I have worked with come to share their desire for connectedness and growth and expression. Some have shared the added challenges that things like living with anxiety, mental health struggles, autism, ADHD, learning difficulties or physical disabilities.

Further information
Sometimes what we need is to be heard, to have someone acknowledge and reflect our experience back to us. You know what it is you need to heal, you have the answers within you. I am here to hold a safe space for you to remember how to hear, express and trust your inner wisdom.
