Family Systems Counselling in Annerley, QLD
Feeling tired, anxious or unsure about things can be overwhelming as the head talk gets louder, and we go into problem-solving-thought mode and we can become unclear about what the problem is. This cycle doesn't solve anything or give us clarity, it keeps nurturing the niggles and the feelings become the worries! So essentially, we start worrying about worrying and can get overwhelmed. This kind of free floating or anticipatory anxiety, doesn’t help to give us clarity or form a plan or move us forward. Instead, it takes up precious air-time and removes us from our connections, our relationships, our plans and our motivations.

I want to work along side you to help manage your distress, depression or anxiety due to childhood trauma, disability, parenting issues, PND, BiPolar Affective Disorder, BPD, suicidal thinking or self-harm urges. I understand that often, in order to live a more fulfilling life, certain things may need to be either accepted or changed. It's a collaborative approach.

I specialise in working with couples, and those experiencing stress and mental health challenges (including drug/alcohol issues). Hello and welcome! My name is Fiona and I have been a counsellor and psychotherapist for 10 years. Our journey through life often doesn't go to plan and we sometimes feel 'derailed' from our desired path. Things may feel unbalanced and unworkable, resulting in great distress and difficulty. With a warm, empathetic and collaborative style, I support clients to identify and work on problematic thoughts, beliefs, feelings and behaviours. Building a strong therapeutic connection is critical to this process.

Family Systems Counsellors
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
