I was skeptical at first. I am trained to look for "credentials" and life coach is a wide and unregulated term. But everything Lisa said in the first video I came across resonated so deeply with me I couldn't ignore it. Lisa comes from a place of honesty and vulnerability sharing her life experience and what she has learned from it supported by all the methods she has studied to position herself to responsibly share it with others.
She is motivated to help others. Her rates are fair and well below the average in some self help circles. She is flexible with payment terms and has a lot of material available for free. I highly recommend her courses. This work helped me heal and love myself again.
Those are the credentials that matter.
I honestly don't know why there are these nasty and bad reviews for Lisa Romano. I grew up in a dysfunctional home, with a narcissistic mother and alcoholic step-father. I had no idea how this had really affected me until I had my own children and felt like such crap about myself. I had also kept attracting bullies and NPD people into my life for a while. Anyway, long story short - I'd been through many therapists, self-help books, etc. but it was really Lisa's work that changed me (and my brain really). You can watch youtube videos all day long, but her program includes so much more - well researched, thought out lessons based in science, personal coaching via livestreams and MEDITATIONS. The meditations are a game changer, because they sink into the subconscious. I am a completely different person today then I was 3 years ago and know how to live a fulfilled life. She approaches her work from a scientific and spiritual perspective, and has walked the walk herself. No therapist I've ever gone to has come close - nor have any youtube videos. -Jennifer Bombard
I have been in and out of therapy for 20 years and have suffered from anxiety, depression and CPTSD. I am the daughter of an alcoholic and have suffered from domestic violence, emotional and sexual abuse. I am a codependent recovering from malignant narcissist abuse. I discovered Lisa A. Romano when I was desperately searching for help in order to move on, heal and to be able to live. My years of therapy did nothing to help me recover except to let me vent. Lisa has changed my life! Lisa has helped me heal generations of trauma. My CPTSD is on a healing journey, I can sleep at night now. My body doesn't ache all over anymore. Lisa does amazing work and has a deep compassion for her work. It is with great honor and humbleness that I write this review. Namaste.
I am beyond grateful to have found Lisa's work on YouTube in 2018. I am taking both classes, 12 Week Breakthrough Class and Master Class in 2020 and it has helped me in ways that no other therapy ever did.
I tried to go on this healing journey on my own for "free". With the help of her YouTube videos. I was able to achieve temporary relief but nothing was permanent because I was NOT doing it right. I needed guidance, order and persistency. I needed to gain certain knowledge on how my brain works in order to learn and have that information sink into my subconscious mind. My trauma was too complicated to go through it on my own. I never knew I needed a support group which is what I now have on Facebook
When you purchase her programs you don't buy magic beans and then you heal. It is hard work on your side. Expect to do daily journalling, meditations and turn around every thought, belief and emotion within your system. Expect for your every stored, pushed down, neglected emotion to resurface. It's painful but Lisa and her team guides you through the pain and on the other side of pain is always relief. And that relief is forever yours. - That's my experience. But again, you are guided and the work has to be done on your side if you are truly committed to healing.
For some, qualified therapists work. For me, a certified coach who has been through similar life experiences such as mine worked in unimaginable ways. You truly can program your own mind. Childhood trauma, attachment trauma, low self worth, low self-esteem, relationship anxiety, are some of the things that have improved for me and I continue to work on them. Sometimes I seek for answers elsewhere, outside of the program and it works beautifully with what other influencers, life coach teach. But in the end I always come back to the teachings of both classes.
After 15 years I am no longer taking antidepressants. It was not magic. It continues to be hard work. I am able to catch myself thinking unwanted thoughts and replace them with thoughts that benefit the function of my brain. I am able to respect and acknowledge the pain when it is showing up and address the underlying issue. This is naturally balancing the chemistry of my brain.
For me, it was worth it and I do not exaggerate when I say that Lisa improved the quality of my life. Before, I didn't even know how to live. I will always support and recommend her work.
The reviews on this website couldn't be as low level minded and inconsiderate of the fact that doing self work involves doing the majority of the work that takes places within oneself in order to change the way they think, act and behave. The problem is, some people cannot accept what they don't want to see. LISA A. ROMANO has been one of the most intellectual and insightful program. I learned how to accept the basics, BEFORE i joined the program. I studied her youtube videos full of scientific research and well as a persona who made me feel like she could actually see me from the screen. I don't know why in this society, we shame and guilt those who are trying to be helpful and positive and they could actually be the most impactful. If it wasn't for her work as a Youtuber first, i would not know MYSELF. And if it wasn't for the terrific, well established program, I now have FULL OF INFORMATION and TOOLS used per her GUIDANCE. She is a wonderful teacher. The only highly critical and unrealistic perspectives of those who CLAIM she is NOT helping others are unaware, unintelligent and dumb by the pure fact that they cannot see that going to the doctors means you have to admit that you are sick FIRST. You don't have to be a certified doctor to know CPR and to perform it on someone to SAVE someones life. But that is what LISA and her work has done. It saved my life. I have other forms of validation in this regard so ask me for my email if you care.
LISA A. ROMANO stands out over and above the darkness that is lurking on this planet! Her work is brilliant and frees the mind, body and soul from fear that binds. SHE TELLS THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON. Her no nonsense approach to healing the pain and darkness that leads to more abuse, addiction, suicide with the simple message that YOU ARE ENOUGH, and ITS NOT YOU, ITS YOUR PROGRAMMING is the key to freedom. Her work is TRUELY from HER HEART. This is the real deal and if you are looking for some insight, check out her youtube channel!
Lisa Romano, I believe Has Nailed the Inner Dynamic between the Beliefs and indocrination that perpetuate Suffering in Power in Control Relationships. An old Paradigm of relating that kills off life and does not allow for freedom Joy and expansion. Her message Is so needed especailly living in these unprecedented times... Some Choose to remain in the Faulty thinking pattern the perpetuates and breeds deceit and inauthenticity. Her work and Passion for this conversation Creates the platform for real Transformation on the physical level as well has the spiritual Level. Learning how to Feel good and embrace your loving Divine Self... I believe that many will not embrace because of the great courage and commitment to Leave these addicted relationships and addicted outdated thoughts that are only beliefs that create more bondage and some really enjoy that dynamic without even being aware... So Much Love Here for You Lisa And Your amazing gift of clarity and Wisdom Love Patricia
I'm a qualified therapist from the UK and I often recommend Lisa's YouTube channel and writings. She is very knowledgeable about narcissistic abuse, an area that not all therapists are trained in or aware of. Lisa's videos are educational and often victims of narcissistic abuse need education alongside a therapeutic relationship in order to heal. I highly recommend Lisa and her professional and clear descriptions of toxic dynamics and pathways to heal.
I find Lisa's videos so helpful, she is compassionate and supportive. I have learned so much and now starting to set some good boundaries.
Lisa's work is incredibly transformative. I've been learning from Lisa over the last 6 months and I find the way she teaches so accessible, insightful, loving and useful. I'm a trained therapist and have worked with hundreds of others in this field of work and many do not understand relationship dynamics and the impact of codependency as well as Lisa does. She just gets it.
I have watched many of Lisa's videos and have benefitted tremendously from them. I very much appreciate her for incorporating a kind of spirituality I can relate to. I believe that leads to another level of healing.
She clearly states she is a life coach and it seems like some do not get the difference between that and a qualified therapist.
I have not taken her classes because I generally do not do well in a larger group of people online (I have neurological issues). I don't think the prices are horrible and are cheaper than working with a life coach in person who doesn't have firsthand knowledge of the trauma that comes with living with pathological people. Plus you get access to Lisa through her Facebook groups.
I have completed two courses of Lisa A Romano's 12 week Breakthrough Warrior Course and her Master Class. I have spent years stuck and in therapy with no great results. After completing these courses my life has turned around in amazing ways. I have been given so much guidance, love, support through theses courses. Healing process is nothing I ever have experienced and the material in both courses have set me on a life path of freedom and healing from codependency. I can't express enough how grateful I am and how supported I have felt and continuing to feel. Also how after the courses are over you are set up for life to keep learning and growing and using all the tools of the program. I will be eternally grateful for Lisa and all her amazing work for giving me the opportunity to live a life healing and freeing myself from codependency and so much more.
While I already learned about codependency and narcissistic abuse from the many video's on Youtube, the 12 week breakthrough course connected the dots. I choose Lisa's program because our experiences seemed so similar.
The secret facebook group delivers a safe and supportive environment to discuss personal issues that I never dared to share before. We all have similar stories, so I finally felt understood. Every week you can ask questions that are answered by Lisa in a live stream. I found this very helpful, not only were my own questions answered, I also learned a lot from the other questions and answers. I learned to be less reactive and to deal with emotional triggers much better then I was able to before the course. Obviously I still need to practice the learned skills a lot. You have access to the course for a minimum of 3 years or as long as the program exists, so you can repeat it many times, picking up new nuggets of wisdom every time.
Lisa a romano breakthrough life coach inc
I took Lisa A Romano's 12 week Breakthrough Programme (March 2018) and the 8 week Master Class (August 2018). I got into Lisa's work in 2017 through the large library of you tube videos that Lisa has posted. Her work resonated with me, so I decided to take the plunge and buy the 12 -week programme. Some of the you tube videos are really excellent for the survivor of childhood emotional abuse. I took the 12 week and did not intend to take the 8-week Masters. Peer pressure made me enrol on it as I felt like I would be missing out on something.
It's impossible to find a place to give a review of the experiences I had so hence I am writing this. I think its important that potential customers should be able to see balanced reviews and not just testimonials.
I will review them both separately below and of course the content is my experience and my opinion only.
12-week breakthrough programme
Description
Each week there is a 20-minute pre-recoded video, a 20-minute meditation and a one- hour live stream. Additionally, each group becomes its own Facebook group.
Pro's
Helpful layout of programme in three stages the problem, acceptance and moving on.
Lisa is a very engaging speaker who has clearly walked the walk.
The livestreams were very beneficial however the sheer number of people on the programme made them feel slightly intimidating to me.
Cons
Very expensive per person (about $1000)
Some participants seemed to be having serious mental health issues from Facebook posts so at times I wondered if they should seek professional help.
Videos were recorded in 2016 and had not been updated in March 2018
A lot of the material is basically the you tube videos organised in a coherent fashion.
In the marketing video beforehand Lisa said that she "may be changing her business model and so this maybe this is the last time she runs the programme herself" I know of at least one more time afterwards on a marketing video for a later Breakthrough programme she said this.
Not sure if I thought it was worth it but some really good moments.
8- week Master's programme
Description
Each week there is a 20-minute pre-recoded video, a 20-minute meditation and a one- hour live stream. Additionally, each group becomes its own Facebook group.
Pro's
Lisa is a very engaging speaker who has clearly walked the walk.
The livestreams were very beneficial and in this case there were about 50 people on the programme so it was less intimidating
Cons
Very expensive per person (about $800)
Lisa read a script for a lot of the time on the videos instead of directly speaking to the audience.
A lot of the material is basically the you tube videos organised in a coherent fashion.
Was not worth it to me and I regret it
I can provide receipts for proof of purchase should that be required.
Answer: I have been healing and doing self help work for over 20 years. I had been in therapy for 20 years. And Lisa's course was the first time I understood that it wasn't my fault - all the things that happened to me; all the patterns I repeated over and over - it's not my fault. It's my internal programming that I got from childhood. And there was no other way it could be. That lifted a thousand years of pain off me and unlocked something - it's not my fault! I'm not a failure. I simply didn't have the tools I needed to be the success I know I can be because I wasn't taught things when I was younger. How obvious! But only once you are told it and get it.
Answer: I found her videos on youtube and simply couldn't stop watching them. It peaked my interest enough to take a course. I had just come from Tony Robbins' big 6 day $10k event in Florida - and I got more out of Lisa's online course. I'm not dissing Tony - he's right for some people. But right now, Lisa is what I need. She's no nonsense and has lived experience that she draws from - that is what makes a true Teacher and not someone just giving a course. You need to figure it out for yourself - watch her videos and see if they click with you.
Answer: That's so subjective that I don't think anyone can really answer it. We all need different things at different points in our life. I just think all this Lisa bashing on here is some kind of coordinated effort to trash her - and I want to know why. Lisa is great for me. I did her course after a couple years of Tony Robbins, which was after a couple years of Landmark and 20 years of Tibetan Buddhism. And 20 years of therapy. Now I'm also watching and loving Esther Hicks because she's resonating with me. As you grow you change - so only you are going to know who's right for you. Good luck with your search! Just please don't rule Lisa out because of all the mean people on here. Her course was exactly what I needed.
