Lisa Johnson Taylor (she, her, hers) is a Licensed Psychologist who has practiced in the mental health field for over 30 years. She has worked with children, adolescents, adults and families in a variety of capacities (including school based day treatment, in home family therapy, intensive outpatient programs, and mental health clinics).
Lisa found her passion as she stumbled upon the powerful transformation that unfolds integrating Sensorimotor Psychotherapy into groups. She continues to co-facilitate experiences to collectively access the wisdom of the body. Although SP primarily informs her work, she synthesizes aspects of IFS, ART, AIR Network, spirituality, nature based healing and other somatic based inquiry. Lisa is committed to an ongoing mindful study of how her cisgendered white body privilege impacts all those she intersects with.
Lisa feels most at home when communing with nature. In her free time, she loves hiking in the woods, gardening, as well as spending time with her family and their dog- Junie B. Some of her favorite ways to restore are practicing yoga, camping in the Boundary Waters, sitting on the rocky shoreline of Lake Superior or floating in any Minnesota lake.
