Lisa has had a lifelong quest of trying to gain a deeper understanding of the human psyche and the world around us. After being raised in Scotland as a Jehovah’s Witness, Lisa left the movement and went on a journey of self-discovery. After gaining a BSc at the University of Huddersfield, she then worked in roles in different sectors alternating between environmental education, rural affairs, school governance, youth mentoring and community outreach support for adults with complex needs.

Lisa’s key interest and speciality is in neurodiversity – whether it be ADHD, Autism or Aspergers to name a few – Lisa’s personal experience in these environments, both as a carer and a parent, equips her to support and help wonderful neurodiverse individuals as well as their family and friends.

Lisa has also lived the parent/carer experience from a chronic health perspective, providing her with a world of insight and knowledge into the medical, educational and support challenges that can arise for any family in this situation.

Lisa is passionate about empowering people to move forward in whichever aspect of life feels stuck, misunderstood or disempowered. When our lives feel full of darkness, for whatever reason, Lisa sees her role as helping someone to find their inner light-switch so that they can see the way forward. Helping to turn the lights for someone is part of the process to connect them to their own inner knowing, knowledge and power.
