I am a Coach who is passionate about sharing what I have learned over the last 30 years. In 1988 I went back to college after more than 20 years of being a housewife, mother, realtor and volunteer. I finished my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology in 1992, my license as a Counselor in 1995 and my PhD in Psychology in 2001. I became fascinated with alternative systems of learning and healing while I was in my PhD program at Saybrook Graduate School and have been learning about and practicing them ever since.
Although I was a Licensed Professional Counselor for 15 years I prefer to work as a Coach and have done so since 2002.
I was delighted to be interviewed by Teri Wellbrock of the Healing Place Podcast, We talked about EFT and Energy Psychology. I was able to share the ACEP Humanitarian Committees work on Resources for Resilience and Well-being. www.R4R.support
I was also interviewed by Brandon at Life Coach Path You can read it here: http://www.nationalcoachacademy.com/coach-interview-series-lorna-minewiser
A couple of weeks ago I was on Facebook Live with Trina Ann Sette in the Coaches, Consultants and Trainers Group on Facebook. Watch it here
I have taught Energy Psychology classes in Clinton Township, MI, Charlotte, NC, Sacramento, CA and through teleclasses and webcasts. In 2006 I received the Certified Energy Health Practitioner designation from the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology.(ACEP)
In personal coaching sessions we might use EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) or Touch and Breathe, Healing Codes, Emotion Codes,Body Code, Energy Medicine techniques, or something else that could help you make the changes you want in your life.
I have taught high school, college, and teacher continuing education classes. My PhD dissertation “Eliciting Mental Models: Images of teaching and learning” has been published and I have had several articles published as well. In the spring of 2008 I conducted a research project on using EFT to reduce Test Anxiety. I was chair of the ACEP research subcommittee on EFT for Research. Recently I participated in the Veteran Stress Research Project. I have co-authored an article about the replication project and have a case study article published.
Another area of interest and expertise for me is the Myers Briggs Type Indicator. I am a certified MBTI Master Facilitator, and teach Type and Learning for the Association for Psychological Type. I conduct workshops and presentations as well as integrate it into my coaching.
I’ve been happily married for more than 55 years and we have a daughter, two sons, and 3 terrific grandchildren and our poodle named Happy.
