Lisa Darveniza is a counsellor, psychotherapist. Growth work teacher and group facilitator and the founder of Awareness Work.
She joins Jody today to talk about the importance of healing the core wounding we experience in childhood. Lisa has developed a 6 month program that guides participants through the steps of rediscovering their authentic self.
We discuss the positive impact work in a group setting can have on growth and healing as it allows people to see there are not broken or different.
After having made this subject her life’s work Lisa believes that people need to be taught how to understand their emotions and be confident enough to feel their emotions instead of avoiding them. Healing takes time and commitment is what she has found so her work now is focused on working with group over a 6 month period which she has found to be totally transformative giving results it would have taken her 4 years to witness in one on one practice.
