Lisa is a Senior Clinical Psychologist with more than 15 years’ experience supporting young people, adults, mothers and babies, couples and families across a diverse range of mental health and life challenges.
Throughout her career, Lisa has worked across both private and public healthcare settings, including senior clinical and leadership roles within the Victorian public hospital psychiatry system. Her experience spans complex mental health presentations, acute and community-based care, and specialist services, providing her with a depth of clinical experience that informs her thoughtful and individualised approach to therapy.
Lisa founded LN Psychology in 2016, with a commitment to providing high-quality, personalised psychological care within a warm and welcoming private practice. She believes that effective therapy begins with a strong therapeutic relationship — one in which clients feel genuinely heard, understood and safe to explore the challenges they are facing.
Lisa takes a collaborative and person-centered approach, working alongside each client to develop a tailored treatment plan that reflects their individual goals, values, strengths and circumstances. She combines clinical expertise with warmth and compassion, while providing a considered and evidence-based approach to treatment.
Lisa works with a broad range of psychological and emotional concerns, with particular clinical interests in young people, women's mental health and the perinatal period, generally working with clients in the age range of 15 to 50 years old.
She supports clients experiencing:
- Anxiety and depression
- Bipolar Affective Disorder
- Trauma
- Emotion regulation difficulties
- Relationship and interpersonal challenges
- Grief and loss
- Significant life transitions and adjustment to change
- Identity and self-esteem concerns
- Burnout and emotional exhaustion
- Work and study-related stress
- Family and parenting difficulties
Lisa draws upon a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT). Her work is informed by attachment and developmental perspectives, recognising the importance of understanding each person within the context of their relationships, experiences and stage of life.
Lisa’s approach is both compassionate and clinically considered, with an emphasis on helping clients develop greater self-understanding, emotional wellbeing and meaningful, sustainable change.
