One addresses the subconscious and another addresses the brain hemispheres. There are several others that connect to the universal mind.

Life Coaching
Life Coaching is collaborative work between a practitioner and client on behalf of the client. The coach broadly does three things. The coach offers a platform to bring the client into self-learning mode. The coach provides tools for the client to develop agency. The coach holds space for accountability.
Coaching is not therapy. Coaching is a good companion with therapy, should a client want to explore the deep whys and hows of a situation or relationship. Coaching accepts the client and their landscape where they are presently to proceed on a specific named goal.
A set series of coaching sessions can carry a client from discovery through definition and into embarking on the named goal.
As is fitting in a coaching session, select somatic modalities may be included to ease through a difficult juncture, clear the base, or solidify a new awareness.
Clients who work with Lisa have goals that work best when body, mind, heart, and spirit are aligned and desire this kind of whole-self embodiment.
