Nicholas Carlisle
I graduated from Oxford University, trained as a human rights lawyer and worked as a barrister in London while serving on the board of Amnesty International (UK). My dream was to live in California. I moved here in 1997, where I became licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist (License number 41626) and certified as a Life Coach. I hold a certificate in trauma resolution from the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute. I am also the founder and director of No Bully, a 501(c)(3) non-profit that helps schools to become bully-free learning communities. I am available as a consultant and expert witness in cases of bullying.

From my own experience of leaving my native country and a successful career to pursue my dreams, I know how daunting transitions can be. But I also know how good it feels to have risked making the changes necessary to creating a life that answers to who you truly are.
