Meet Liza

I’ve dedicated my life to helping people find more fulfillment and meaning in their connections with others and in life itself. Are you living the life you want? Do your habitual patterns get in the way of you being present in life and relationships? If you need a life reboot, I can help you to identify the hidden commitments you have with yourself and overcome the blocks that get in the way of you achieving your life priorities. Our work together can help you to heal and nurture your relationship with your body, mind and spirit so you can address challenges more easily and live your life with greater self-confidence and self-love. My approach is tailored to your needs. I use a cognitive behavioral framework and integrate positive psychology, mindfulness, somatically-oriented interventions and brain science. These methods enable you to develop emotional agility and to build a body and mind that supports the positive changes you want to see in your life; changes that allow you to be your best-self!
