Lisa Cooney
What do you do every day?
Lisa Cooney: A typical day starts with honoring myself and taking me time. I exercise, or mediate, or set a target for my work day. I usually start work at 10 o'clock with client appointments and business meetings. I usually finish up at 6 pm with some me time.
Why do you love your job?
Lisa Cooney: Every single day I get to help people do better and be more confident. I focus on helping people move past abuse through both my clinical background as a psychologist and my training as a marriage and family therapist. I studied and focused on energy healing modalities and consciousness. This combination helps people work through abuse to live a fulfilling life. It's very satisfying.
What were your biggest moments of fear or challenge in your career?
Lisa Cooney: How do I go outside the traditional modalities and bridge that with the spiritual and energy modalities that I see as very prevalent today? When I was in school, that wasn't as well known. My fear was to be shunned by the clinical community while being embraced within the energy community.
What are the latest innovations in science that you are the most excited about?
Lisa Cooney: I'm really excited about a biological medicine tour I took in Europe. I got to know some naturopathic doctors in the US that were working on thermographs. Thermometry is growing in scientific efficacy across the globe for an alternative wellness technology for Naturopathic medicine. The Thermometry machine is already approved in all of Europe and is awaiting FDA approval in the US. I am currently conducting a research study to show the efficacy of energy work on the body which shows there can be a change in chronic conditions through energy healing that is visually shown on the thermograph reading.
