Authentic Conversations Counselling (ACC).
About you
Greeting Courageous Soul!
You are brave, indeed, to recognise the problematic issue/issues that are impacting your life, and then seek assistance to make changes that will move you toward the person you want to be. Sometimes the pressures and struggles of life can lead to feelings of emotional overwhelm, grief and loss, anger, guilt, shame, and perhaps an overall sense of being stuck. We would be privileged to listen to your story and work alongside you on your journey to a less chaotic, happier and more fulfilling life.
About Us
ACC is located in the southern Sydney suburb of Alfords Point and offers support to both adults and children to assist in their recovery and healing from mental health difficulties. We value autonomy, resilience, understanding, respect, hope and empowerment. These values are fostered through authentic conversations.
About Lisa
Lisa is a professional counsellor, nationally accredited through the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA). Lisa brings with her extensive experience working with individuals and families within the community services sector.
Lisa has completed postgraduate studies in mindfulness/meditation and behavioural therapy. She has experience working therapeutically within the disability sector, with NDIS participants, and providing behavioural therapy sessions for children diagnosed with ASD.
Treatment Focus
Lisa is a generalist counsellor who works with individuals experiencing a range of issues including depression, anxiety/phobias, stress, parenting and behavioural issues, grief and loss, anger, relationship issues, workplace/career stress, abuse, self esteem difficulties and life transitions (eg. birth of baby, retirement, separation or divorce).
Her focus is to help individuals heal, energise, and develop greater awareness and clarity of their strengths and of what keeps them locked in their struggles. She achieves this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customising a treatment plan.
Lisa understands that there is no one size fits all policy when it comes to counselling, and so she utilises an integrative approach that incorporates a range of modalities that cater for the individual needs of the people she works with.
Client Promise
We promise to be there for you every step of your journey. Our goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life. We understand that you are the expert on your own life, so will work alongside you to form goals and move through your current struggles.
