Lisa’s unique blend of wit, humor and simplicity facilitate an experiential reading journey that challenges the reader to not only connect with the subject matter but also to look through new lenses at the topic at hand. Lisa can take complicated and intense subject matter and present it in a way that the reader feels as if they are sitting at the kitchen table over a steamy cup of rich, hot cocoa and discussing it in person. There is a sense that although the reader might not always agree with the perspective, the reader can relate to the writing. This subtle way of presenting information lulls the reader into receptivity to the material at hand. Utilizing logic and facts coupled with stories of shared experience gives the reader something to relate to.

Lisa began writing over twenty years ago. This passionate hobby turned into a prolific career with Lisa having published 8 books. She also writes for several well-known magazines and child/parenting organizations. She writes on subject matters ranging from conscious & intentional parenting to metaphysics and spirituality. She also works with women’s organizations on empowering women and has written several books specifically for women who are waking up to and finding their own voices. Her experience and reputation as a parenting expert and spiritual coach have given her many opportunities to share her gifts and talents around the country. She has been invited to speak at national speaking engagements, hosted spiritual retreats and has been invited to speak on a local TV program.

Lisa is a life-long avid learner and researcher and is always looking to expand her awareness, consciousness, and understanding of life. She has taken this eclectic life-learning, together with a Master’s Degree in Child and Adolescent Developmental Psychology, a Master’s and Doctorate in Metaphysics and Transpersonal Counseling, certification in Family Effectiveness Training, and as a Neurodevelopmentalist to facilitate healing experiences for others.
