Hi, I'm Lisa
I don't just help with children, families, healthcare, education, community, and their families - I've been there, working alongside them.
“It’s time for a practitioner who speaks your language"
With 20 years spent working within healthcare, education and in community roles alongside families, children, emergency services, and caring professionals, I know that 'the job' doesn't stay at work, it often transfers into life. With all the right learning, direction and advice to 'leave the job at work when you go home', it’s easier said than done.
I work alongside children, young people, and their families, in private practice, schools, community services, and complex frontline environments. These experiences have shaped a thoughtful, evidence-informed approach that helps families feel understood, supported, and empowered to create meaningful and lasting positive change.
I am a Provisional Psychologist with a Master’s degree in Counselling & Psychotherapy, a Master’s degree as a Registered Nurse, and post graduate qualifications in Child & Family Health, and Tertiary Education. This holistic training and experience enable me to work collaboratively with children, adolescents, and families, providing compassionate, evidence-based care that considers the whole person within the context of their family, school, and broader community.
Clinical expertise is vital, but lived experience is irreplaceable. If you’re tired of explaining how work can impact yourself, children, family life, and health, let’s talk.
I provide grounded, supportive, trauma-informed support for the people doing the
hardest jobs in our community and at home, YOU.
How We Support People
-
Trauma-informed Therapy: Many people experiencing trauma symptoms don't actually identify with the word "trauma".
-
Do you feel constantly 'on edge' even when you're safe?
-
Does your body react to stress before your mind even knows why?
-
What are your survival habits after an incident or ongoing event?
-
-
Grief and Loss: Navigating loss - Loss of a loved one, job, identity, colleagues, teams, familiar environments, and/or change. Grief is not limited to death and may arise from change, transition, or psychological injury. Care focuses on healing, resilience, and safely journeying through stages to restore wellbeing and develop a healthy relationship with the environment.
