Booked a few sessions with Lisa at The Italian Forum and felt an immediate sense of ease. Her CBT approach helped me identify stuck patterns, and the stress management techniques she shared are now part of my weekly routine. Highly recommend for anyone in Leichhardt needing practical, compassionate support.
Lisa Barrett has been a steady, reassuring presence during a tough patch. Her individual counselling sessions are focused and warm, and I left each meeting with something concrete to try. The location on Norton Street is convenient for a post-work session in Leichhardt.
As someone new to therapy, I appreciated Lisa’s clear explanations of cognitive-behavioral techniques. The group therapy option at The Italian Forum was surprisingly supportive, and I felt heard by others going through similar things. Definitely a positive experience.
Lisa helped me develop practical stress management strategies that I actually use day-to-day. The sessions felt personalised and respectful, and I left feeling lighter about my anxiety. I’d recommend her to mates around Sydney who want real-world tools.
Grateful for the compassionate care I received with Lisa. Her approach to counselling blends empathy with actionable steps, which made a noticeable difference in how I handle tricky conversations at work. The Leichhardt location is convenient and comfortable.
I’ve tried a few therapists, but Lisa Barrett stands out. Her group sessions created a safe space to share and learn, and her individual sessions are thoughtful and tailored to my needs. I feel more in control of my stress now.
If you’re in the Leichhardt area and need counselling or psychotherapy, Lisa is worth a visit. The quality of care at The Italian Forum is top-notch, and I appreciated the clear plan she helped me develop to manage days when everything feels overwhelming.
