Showing you how to move beyond feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of modern motherhood. Offering a space for healing, self-discovery, and living a more authentic  life.

Lisa Quinney, Counsellor in Geelong

May you live a joyful life, in which you feel connected and calm - that is my wish for YOU!

Connect, Heal, Embrace -
A Gentle Path to Sturdy Motherhood

  • Are you feeling overwhelmed by societal pressures and a fast-paced world?

  • Are you seeking an alternative to traditional therapy that focuses on self-healing and empowerment?

  • Do you value authenticity, vulnerability, and creating your own path?

Then you are in the right place!

 

I believe you have the power to heal yourself and live a fulfilling life. I acknowledge the unhelpful structures and systems of our culture and I practice kindness towards myself and others. I advocate for a slow, deliberate approach to personal growth, while encouraging self-expression and individuality. And I believe in continuous self-growth.

Support your mental health, get creative and connect with other mums in a safe and nurturing environment.

The Circle for Mums in Ocean Grove

Maternal Journal is a global not-for-profit movement for mothers, pregnant people, non-binary carers and anyone who identifies as a mother.

We journal together and experiment with different forms of art, like poetry, collage, prose, drawing and painting.

Welcome to
your slow life

Realign with your values and

step out of toxic motherhood!

Societal expectations of mothers can be suffocating. Mums are supposed to be perfect. Always calm. Always gentle. Never angry, annoyed, burnt out or overwhelmed. This unnatural depiction of what a mother is supposed to be like is detrimental to our mental health and wellbeing. I am here to show you how to unlearn all this and embrace the mum YOU want to be, so that motherhood feels good and you get to actually enjoy it.

How can I support you?

The Circle for Mums is a nurturing and safe space to express yourself creatively alongside other mums.

Lisa was of tremendous support for me. She is a wonderful listener and helped me regain my mental and emotional balance (those postpartum hormones are no joke!). Sometimes I'd just need some reassurance and compassion, sometimes she helped me find a much needed new perspective. 
I cannot recommend Lisa highly enough!
Lisa gave me practical tips to manage stress and anxiety. It was like having a personal coach for my emotions.

I seriously can't imagine going through this life-changing time without her. If you're expecting and want an awesome counsellor who knows IFS, go see Lisa!
With her expertise and life experience Lisa has given me guidance, support and compassion when I truly needed it. Her understanding of the roller coaster that is motherhood has been so reassuring. She has enabled me to seek help when needed, be kind to myself and accept imperfection.

Hi, I am Lisa

I am a Mama and a counsellor. My children are 8 and 11 years old, one was born in Germany and one was born here, on Wadawurrung Country (Geelong).

 

I have always loved the arts and have found that it is supportive for my wellbeing to play around with words, colours and textures to express myself. That's why I incorporate creative expression and mindfulness in my practice.

 

I believe we need to become rebellious to step out of the toxic expectations of what society tells us motherhood should look like and to purposefully live a slow and gentle life that feels good to us.

I am passionate about creating a relationship to one self and prioritising ones own needs before tending to everyone else's. I understand as a mum and primary care giver this often feels impossible. I believe that you deserve and need support when finding out who you are and want to be as a mum and as a person.

A Medicine
Woman's Prayer

I will not rescue you.

For you are not powerless.

I will not fix you.

For you are not broken.

I will not heal you.

For I see you, in your wholeness.

I will walk with you through the darkness,

as you remember your light.
