An appointment was gifted to me by a dear friend. I can’t say I really understood how Lisa’s methods could be different then all the therapy I had experienced in the past, so I remained open to all possibilities. First, Lisa’s energy is beautiful and energizing. She is extremely bright, caring and intuitive. She carefully listened to everything I said and even heard/saw things I didn’t know how to explain.
I’m a physically healthy & fit 50+ man who has battled with sadness and depression my entire life. I have been in therapy on and off for decades with decent results. When I met Lisa she first asked me a series of questions that evolved with each answer and about halfway through the questions, it hit me me to the core. These incredibly intuitive questions took me on a journey down a road that I never knew existed for me (questions that all the highly regarded licensed mental health professionals had never asked or considered asking). Once Lisa got to what I now consider my true underlying issues, she/we began addressing them and I released a torrent of tears over the next hour. (I’m not a man who believes that crying = weakness, but prior to this day I cannot recall the last time I cried beyond the births or deaths of loved ones).
Can I say my sadness was suddenly gone? Can I say from that day forward the underlying sadness that I lived with, no matter how good I felt was no longer there? Can I say from that day forward (now 8 months ago), I no longer feel the sadness? YES YES!! YES!! YES!! Do I miss this sadness? HECK NO! Not one minute of it.
I’m now understand how Lisa is different because I feel so incredibly fortunate every day for this new quality of life! I will be flying back to NJ this summer to work on one other issue I can’t seem to overcome in my traditional therapy. Life is Beautiful.
