About me
Hi, I’m Lisa. I’m a Clinical Counsellor and Support Worker credentialed in Australia, with over 10 years of experience supporting women through life’s challenges. I’m an independent contractor and run my own practice, Indy Support Services, offering compassionate, client-centered counselling.
I work with women experiencing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, parenting challenges, trauma, or recovery after domestic abuse. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and supported as you work toward building resilience, confidence, and a more fulfilling life.
In our sessions, you’ll find a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings. Together, we’ll develop practical tools to manage emotions, navigate life transitions, and move toward positive change at your own pace.
Taking the first step is often the hardest, but it’s also the bravest. I’m here to guide and empower you every step of the way — helping you reclaim your strength, confidence, and peace of mind.
