About me
Hello, my name is Lisa.
I am a trained psychotherapist and clinical hypnotherapist.
I realised after working in diverse professional fields and not-for-profit organisations, that my preference was to work in the health industry. I have a passion for seeing people at their best, and this vocation enables me to help people live their finest life.
My motivation to assist people to achieve a better way of living was cemented the first time I saw the true effect of personal transformation using Hypnotherapy and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP). I didn’t believe it at first! How could this happen so fast? The way they changed from being downhearted to optimistic, joyful, and most importantly hopeful; and then to see this transformation in action, was incredibly inspiring and moving.
Over the years, I’ve slowly included specific result-oriented modalities into my practice. This is an excellent tool for assisting you in realising your potential, whether it be in your career, personal relationships, health, personal development, spirituality or education.
I have spent over a decade conducting seminars and workshops throughout Victoria. I run a private practice with individual sessions focusing on anxiety, fear and dealing with major life changes. Included in my general practice are sessions to counter sleep disturbance, phobias, life changes and weight concerns.
I’m trained in both speech and drama and have completed diplomas from Trinity College of London and the Australian Guild of Speech and Drama. I have used this training combined with hypnosis and coaching as a tool to help others gain confidence, develop a positive self-image and overcome the fear of public speaking.
I have a Diploma of Clinical Hypnosis and Strategic Psychotherapy as well as being a certified Master Practitioner Time Line Therapy®, Coaching, and Trainer of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming).
I’m a current certified professional member of the Australian Association of Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy Inc (AACHP) - a registered and recognised organisation with the peak body for clinical hypnotherapy in Australia - the Hypnotherapy Council of Australia (HCA).
My training was conducted at the Institute of Applied Psychology (IAP) All of these organisations are highly respected and regarded within the industry. They are recognised for requiring and upholding the highest level of ethical conduct. They expect educational excellence, continued growth and ongoing proof of upholding professional standards.
I currently reside and practice in the eastern area of Melbourne.
I enjoy further studies and enhancing my skills. I always seek to improve through upgrading and acquiring more knowledge.
Testimonials
What I have experienced this month has been life changing. I have suffered from depression and anxiety for over 40 years. I have had every therapy known to man with no avail. Till I went to see Lisa, who was referred by a friend. In this month my life has changed so dramatically. I now am positive, don’t worry about things that haven’t happened, or what is going to happen in the future. I’m secure, happy, and ever so grateful that I received this amazing help. I highly recommend Lisa. - Helen
I saw Lisa for an issue I had relating to family stress, which had been causing me concern for some time. Lisa got to the heart of the problem and was able to quickly direct me in a clear and positive direction that better served me and my family. Lisa is warm, empathetic and she had great insight into how I was feeling. She took the time to listen and understand my situation. I highly recommend Lisa and will use her services again if I need in the future. - Debbie
Hi all that suffer from phobias, fears, panic attacks and anxiety. My name is Lena, I have had anxiety and panic attacks for years. I couldn’t go shopping or drive or walk to the letter box. When I heard about Lisa, I contacted her and after a few sessions with this amazing Master Practitioner I now can do all of the above and lots more. I feel fantastic, I urge anyone that wants the suffering to end to go and see Lisa without delay. You will be happy you did. - Lena
I saw Lisa to get help with a habit I have had for over 40 years of chewing/biting my lips and cheeks. Lisa’s calm, non-judgemental and professional skills helped me to open-up and let go of the problem. After 2 sessions I now feel in charge of my behaviour and find my mouth is healing up for the first time in a very long time. I cannot thank Lisa enough for helping me to release those inner tensions and concerns. - Carol
I had a problem with feelings of homelessness and eating ice cream late at night. I had hypnotherapy, and along with the insights and help I’ve received, I’ve not had the thought that I’m homeless or that I want to reward myself with an ice cream. I also feel "lighter" in my presence if that makes sense. Thank you, Lisa. - Selina
I’ve been dealing with my Phobia of heights for over 34 years. And I can’t believe that it really only took one session! I came back for another session to overcome the disbelief that it could happen so quickly! I’m so grateful, I feel so liberated, I can’t believe that I carried this fear for so long! I wish I would have seen Lisa sooner. - Kay
