A welcoming place, to share your journey
Everyone Deserves to be Heard & Supported
At Indy Support Services, I offer professional counselling exclusively for women in a safe, private environment. My sessions support women of all ages to navigate challenges, build resilience, and develop strategies that are personal and practical. Counselling is available via telehealth across Australia, as well as walk-and-talk sessions locally in Yea, Victoria.
What sets my practice apart is my wholehearted commitment to creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to be yourself. Every session is confidential and non-judgemental, allowing you to explore what matters most with honesty and compassion.
Our Counselling Services
General Women's Counselling
General counselling provides a safe, supportive space to explore life’s challenges—from stress and anxiety to relationship concerns, grief, or low self-esteem. At Indy Support Services, I walk beside you with compassion, helping you gain clarity, strengthen your coping strategies, and build confidence. Each session is tailored to your unique needs, offering both warmth and practical support as you navigate life’s ups and downs. Together, we’ll focus on small, meaningful steps that lead to lasting positive change.
A client expressed: “Counselling with Lisa helped me untangle my thoughts and see a clearer path forward.”
Parenting Counselling
Parenting is rewarding but also challenging, no matter your role—birth mother, stepmother, adoptive or foster carer. At Indy Support Services, I offer practical tools and emotional support to help you navigate parenting phases while managing stress and strengthening family relationships. Parenting counselling provides space to reflect on your needs, improve communication, and build confidence in your role. Together, we’ll create strategies that support both you and your family, so you feel more balanced, capable, and connected.
A mother I supported said: “Lisa helped me find new ways to manage my stress and reminded me that I don’t have to do this alone.”
Grief & Loss Counselling
Grief can arise from many experiences—bereavement, relationship endings, job loss, or other life changes. At Indy Support Services, I offer compassionate counselling to help you process these feelings and find your way through the pain. Grief counselling provides a safe space to share your story, honour your loss, and gradually move toward a new sense of normal. You don’t have to face grief alone—together, we’ll focus on building resilience and finding hope after loss.
One client shared: “Lisa walked beside me in my grief and gave me hope when I couldn’t see it myself.”
Trauma Counselling
Trauma can leave lasting impacts on your emotional, physical, and behavioural wellbeing. At Indy Support Services, trauma counselling provides a safe and compassionate space to process past experiences, develop coping strategies, and regain a sense of strength and safety. Every session is guided at your pace, with respect for your story and your needs. Together, we’ll work on rebuilding resilience and confidence, so you can move forward with greater clarity, calm, and hope for the future.
In the words of a client: “Lisa helped me feel safe enough to face my past, and for the first time, I can see a way forward.”
Recovery Counselling for Women (After Domestic Abuse)
Leaving an abusive relationship takes enormous courage, but healing doesn’t stop once you’re out. Recovery counselling at Indy Support Services offers a safe, confidential space to process what you’ve been through and begin rebuilding your confidence, self-worth, and sense of safety. Together, we’ll gently explore your experiences, create coping strategies, and support you in developing healthier relationships with yourself and others. My focus is always on empowerment, helping you move forward at your own pace with hope and strength.
A survivor expressed: “For the first time, I felt believed, and I finally started to rebuild my confidence.”
