LISA PALMER, Psychotherapist and Occupational Therapist
Change happens when we accept and integrate all aspects of ourselves. Do you want to make space for change this year? What would it take to step into your life and your relationships with more ease and joy?
Lisa is a psychotherapist working from relational, gestalt, solution-focused and cognitive behavioural frameworks. I work with individuals to explore, and try out, new ways of seeing or doing things in their lives. At the heart of my approach is collaboration, creativity, and inclusion of the language of the body. During a session I invite you to bring all parts of yourself into the treatment, and look at your struggles and strengths with greater self-compassion, and responsibility. By developing awareness we can work toward your desired changes in relationship with yourself and others, and bring more ease and lightness into your life. I offer a 15 minute phone call free of charge to discuss your hopes for therapy.
