https://www.selahcounseling.cloud/ When you work with Lisa Elliott, you are supported by her deep understanding of the brilliance of our body, mind, and spirit in adapting to our lived experiences, as well as those of our ancestors. Her study of the physiology of stress and trauma has given her a holistic and empowering view of how they impact our access to authenticity, empowerment, self-awareness, fulfilling relationships, creativity, resilience, and vitality. Movement and other creative practices, depth and somatic psychotherapies, and the skills of deep presence form the foundations of her psychotherapeutic approach. Her philosophy of healing and transformation has developed from a previous career in health and movement coaching, as well as her leadership of the online Vagus Study Group. Contemplative practices, as well as other transformative experiences, weave through her work as powerful tools for health and peace. Lisa works with older teens and adults, and is compassionate and informed with all expressions of gender and identity. She is a fierce and open-hearted advocate for those who occupy marginalized places in their communities. She is also well equipped to work with clients who choose to shape their lives and relationships in unconventional ways.
