Professional statement

Lisa Ulanoff is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for over twenty years. She is trained in the release of trauma and will help you rediscover a deep calm and stillness within you. The majority of her clients are adults struggling with PTSD or trauma from childhood. She helps clients with depression, anxiety, relationship and attachment issues, or just with a general sense of feeling stuck. She has extensive training in trauma, spiritual studies, parts work (IFS), and utilizing the mind/body connection. Much of her work involves incorporating neuroscience with the wisdom of the body to transform and heal.

Sessions involve naming difficult feelings, finding them in the body, through the use of sensations, and learning how to meet them with self compassion. You will be given many tools that you can use on your own, in order to continue self healing. Clients also learn how to recognize an inner guidance. These sessions help clients utilize a tenderness that is deep within them covered over by their history and conditioning. Within these sessions you will find your natural capacities, and experience yourself as calm, spacious and achieving a profound stillness within you.

Offering remote sessions only.


Message to clients

In working with your unique history, I help you find your own self regulation and self empowerment around areas in your life that trigger trauma symptoms, cause depression, anxiety, anger, obsessions, addictions or unwanted behaviors.

The basic philosophy behind my work is that if you can name the feelings that have been exiled or strongly avoided, and meet it with a tenderness that is innate but covered up by conditioning, then transformation happens.

I create a safe space for you to bring your issues and problems, no matter what they may be. You will learn how to become intimate with the thoughts and feelings surrounding your issues through inquiry. You will learn how to deeply experience yourself as you are, using a mind/body connection. You will learn how to witness your thoughts and discriminate which ones support you, and which ones no longer support you. You will also learn how anger is there for a reason and can organically move into clarity, strength and action.

Ultimately, you will learn to recognize and access a deep calm, stillness and centeredness within yourself.
