Lisa Lundy

**My name is Lisa (she/her)**

I have been in practice as a Dr of Chinese Medicine since 1996 and am influenced by Eastern Medicine’s view of the brain being a curious organ and the reciprocity that exists between our inner and outer environments. I hold tremendous regard for the wisdom of our body and the dance between our thoughts, feelings, experiences and potential.

My approach in counseling is grounded in client-centered care, trauma awareness, attachments, and resilience. I am particularly influenced and anchored in Emotionally Focused Therapy, Polyvagal theory, trauma awareness and somatics, and curious about the ways that generational differences can be explored with a lens of cultural sensitivity. I am a mother to three fabulous and unique humans and a long time partner to another.

I have personal and professional experience with diversity, chronic pain and health conditions, trauma, grief and loss, women’s health, and I love to advocate for and support the people helping the people. I have worked with many individuals walking loved ones goodbye, or managing living griefs that are often unseen. In addition, I love to assist people navigating systems. I hold a bachelor’s science degree from the University of Victoria with a major in psychology, a Masters in Counseling, and am a registered Dr. of Traditional Chinese medicine with the province of British Columbia.

I have been working in holistic health care for over thirty years and continue to be humbled by the weather of life, our capacity to feel, and our resilience to grow through hard moments. Like the lotus, beautiful things can grow from mud. I value the messy moments in life and am passionate about normalizing our humanity with an open honest heart and when possible, a bit of humor.

I look forward to meeting you, and walking with you.
