Lisa M. Mayfield

I am passionate about supporting healing and growth though Somatic Experiencing, bringing in years of experience in mindfulness, shamanic, and depth psychology practices to my work. Becoming more aware of the body and the nervous system, and working toward more regulation, open doors for more aliveness and sense of ease. My own continuing journey in shifting the effects of traumatic experience, including developmental trauma, deepens my capacity to hold space for others. The work and way of life of Somatic Experiencing is profound and I am honored to support it with my clients. I am supported by decades of training and experience as a family mediator, and as director of a program that supports abused and neglected children. Specific areas of study and training include attachment needs and issues, abuse and neglect, family violence, substance dependence issues, sexual abuse, grief/loss. Work in the context of the legal system as a family mediator and attorney, I am prepared to support clients' work that emerges around divorce/separation, reproductive matters, and adoption.
