Support with Anxiety, Stress and Trauma

I am Lisa Suurland (1963),

… and I started my practice because I like working with people and want to help those who feel stuck in life. I listen to stories that have never been told before. I give space to feelings that have been ignored or left unspoken.

… a sensitive and empathetic person who follows her intuition. I rely on the insights gained through life experience, including my own painful lessons. Every day, I learn from what my clients share with me and from how I support them.

… academically trained. I also work with knowledge I have gained through scientific education and training.

… always eager to learn. Every year, I take new courses to improve my skills. You can find my diplomas and certificates at the bottom of this page.

I am also …

… mother of two adult children, who are discovering their own paths in life. We love to see each other.

… quite sporty, and passionate about rowing and speed skating. I also like cycling, and hiking in the mountains. Staying physically active helps me to be mentally resilient. After all, body and mind are one.

… a skating coach for a few years now. I have been taking lessons myself for many years, and I love the technique and enjoy passing it on. Learning the craft from an experienced skating coach (with whom I still train), I teach a group lesson every week and occasionally give a few private lessons — all with great pleasure.
