Dr Marny Lishman is a Health & Community Psychologist, Keynote Speaker, Author, & Media Commentator.

Marny’s work involves creating agility of the mind, increasing people’s psychological capacity to not only design & create the life that they envision, transforming their internal capabilities to beyond what they thought possible, and providing them with the skills to deal with individual and collective disruptions that they will inevitably face on their life journey.
 
A nurturer at heart, Marny has worked in private practice for many years, has worked in academia in several Perth universities and now predominantly designs and delivers bespoke mental health & workplace team mindset learning and development experiences.

Marny also provide media commentary on a variety of mental health topics on TV, radio and in print. She is the Resident Psychologist on Channel Nine News in Perth, has regular segments on state & national radio & TV news shows such as Today Extra and is a columnist for Australia’s Body + Soul, and Perth Now/The Sunday Times. You will also see her commentary in a number of well-known publications including Marie Claire, Australian Women's Weekly, Cleo, Prevention, Sydney Morning Herald, Huffington Post, MindFood, International Business News and many more.

A 'nature child' who requires a lot of outside time; Marny is her best self when she can indulge in long walks with her dog, pop along to her local pilates class, read, meditate and spend time with her shiny (but rather) loud children.

INDIVIDUAL SESSIONS

Coaching & Mentoring Packages

For those who want to engage in personal intensive mindset work can work on an individual basis with me. My mentoring packages encompass not only psychological & coaching techniques but mentoring based on my own life experiences.

I teach people how to become calm, confident and in control by working with you to facilitate psychological wellbeing and put you on the pathway to where you personally want to go. I do this by working through a holistic process which includes evidence-based techniques and strategies I know will make an enormous difference to your wellbeing and success.

​

It can take courage to change but if you are prepared to find new ways of responding to old situations and redirecting your life by taking on board what we discuss in our sessions, then our work together will be life changing. I've had the privilege of working with hundreds of clients over the years and watching their stories unfold has made me love my job even more!

You can expect that I will provide an open and accepting space to explore your challenges and develop workable solutions, hold you accountable for the goals you set yourself, and collect feedback from you during every session. I'm sure you will enjoy working with me and my down-to-earth approach to life and all it's challenges (and successes of course!).

Please EMAIL ME  for more information about package costs or for a free 20-minute strategy session.
