I cherish Lisa's insights and very creative ideas and was deeply moved by her workshop about immigration at the last USA Conference in Ashville Carolina. To be her colleague makes me proud and excited about the future of the USA constellation community, and I know that whoever wants to learn the approach of systemic constellation work will greatly benefit from her high skill level as a psychotherapist and teacher, from her integrity with sharp mind and warm heart, and from her never failing sense of humor, who gives lightness and spice to all interactions.”

Sneh Victoria Schnabel Family Constellation Facilitator and Teacher

Lisa Iversen's many years of experience as both a licensed psychotherapist and facilitator of constellations are combined wonderfully in a gentle holding that makes clients feel welcome and respected. She is able to work with personal issues, as well as, for example, the collective patterns of denial and repression in society at large where it concerns race and religion. I can wholeheartedly recommend Lisa to clients of all backgrounds.”

Daan Van Kampenhout Facilitator and Author, "Images of the Soul" and "The Tears of the Ancestors"

I felt Lisa was completely present, intuitively connected, unafraid to speak the truths she saw… a master teacher in some ways, but maybe more accurately a master guide. She seems to see her role in this work as being one of a guide, not an all-knowing guru but more of a person who has studied a lot, is very tuned-in and well-trained in this method, and wants to help people along their personal path.”

Anji Citron, MSW, LICSW Psychotherapist

Lisa Iversen is a skilled, compassionate and inspirational teacher, whose depth of knowledge and experiential practice of Family Constellations work, combined with well-developed skills of deep listening and intuitive awareness, allow for a profound transformational process to unfold. Lisa offers her powerful leadership skills to cultivate mutual understanding and communication between 'all our relations' and effectively work toward ending systemic transgenerational oppressions."
