Hi! I’m Lisa 👋
If you’re looking for someone who will genuinely engage with your kids, get involved and make their time together feel fun and meaningful, I’d love to hear from you!
I’m a mum of three (one adult and two teens, so they are all independent now), so I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience navigating the beautiful (and sometimes chaotic!) world of children and teenagers. I also bring many years of professional experience working with people and families through my counselling work, where patience, empathy, communication and connection are at the heart of what I do.
In addition to this, I also have experience in support work, assisting people with day-to-day living, emotional wellbeing, routines, and building confidence and independence. This has strengthened my ability to be calm under pressure, adaptable, and truly present with the people I support—meeting them where they’re at and responding to their individual needs with care and respect.
I’m naturally warm, energetic and proactive, and I’m not really a “sit on my phone while the kids entertain themselves” kind of person! I love getting outside, exploring nature, heading to the beach, cooking, creating, doing arts and crafts, playing games, reading, baking or simply finding something fun to do together.
I’m passionate about a healthy, active lifestyle and love encouraging kids to be curious, creative, confident and involved in the world around them. 🌿🎨🏄♀️
Having recently moved to the Northern Rivers, I’m also really enjoying getting to know the area and would love to become a trusted, familiar person in a family’s life — someone your kids look forward to seeing and you feel completely comfortable leaving them with.
I’m reliable, caring, responsible and genuinely enjoy being around children. Most importantly, I want them to feel seen, listened to and valued.
You can visit my website at Lisacarrotherscounselling.com.au to get a better feel for who I am, my professional background and the way I work. I’ve also included a number of client testimonials on my website.
Due to the confidential nature of my counselling work, I’m unable to ask clients to provide personal references. I hope the testimonials on my website can give you some insight into the way I work and the relationships I build with the people I support

I’d love to connect and see if I might be a good fit for your family! 😊
