      Courage, Clarity & Meaning

      General Info

      Liz Toms provides professional counselling to support individuals and couples in overcoming challenging circumstances.

      Warrnambool Lighthouse Counselling provides a safe place to process and resolve many issues such as loneliness, anxiety and depression, grief and loss, mid-life crisis, relationship or marriage breakdown, major life changes such as infertility, retirement or redundancy, family stresses, and the long-term effects of bullying, traumatic events and abusive situations.

      At your first session, you will be able to share about your life circumstances and what you hope to gain from counselling. Your goals will guide the direction sessions you will take and, with support and encouragement, you will come to identify small steps that will lead towards growth in resilience. Couples will be encouraged to face the reality of gaps within their relationship and seek to make amends to heal deep wounds and address unresolved issues.

      How is Christian counselling different to seeing a psychologist?

      Christian counselling helps people who are being challenged by grief, trauma, depression or various problems with relationships, but are not suffering from a psychological illness. Psychologists also help with these issues but work from a medical model of diagnoses and treatments. Christian counsellors focus more on the unique journey of each individual person and provide encouragement and support to seek courage, clarity and meaning in the midst of challenging times, to become more resilient.
