Lisa Gregory, BSW

Professionally, I’ve been a social worker in the community mental health sector since 2010. I work with young people and adults experiencing emotional and suicidal distress, responses to trauma, violence and oppression, existential crisis and spiritual emergence. I’ve worked as a clinician, support worker, group facilitator, team leader, supervisor, researcher and lived experience worker. I have been a community activist and continue to support movements for social change. Personally, I have my own story of recovering from mental illness, trauma, grief and burn out. I continue to evolve through engaging with holistic modalities such as psychotherapy, yoga, meditation, breath work and plant medicines. I believe that recovery and healing are possible and that challenging experiences can provide opportunities for change and growth. They can inspire us to live in more meaningful and purposeful ways, and they can reconnect us with our authentic Self, each other and all-that- is. I am committed to my professional and personal development. I engage in regular supervision, reflective practice and community connection. I practice self- care and maintain a healthy work- life balance. I enjoy being in nature, dancing, stand- up comedy and ice cream. I look forward to getting to know you.
