Experience and approach:

Lisa works globally both online, and also offers in person Therapy through Intensive Therapy in a retreat format designed just for you (and your partner/s). The Intensive Therapy options can be 2-3 days, which may be a useful option for people whom wish to attend to Therapy either during their time off or fast tracked. Intensive Therapy as an option can incorporate Psychosexual Therapy, Relationship Therapy, EMDR Trauma Therapy and Yoga Therapy. This is a way of experiencing therapy in an environment to go deeply, while your body and nervous system is being supported.
