Female Counselling in Lobethal, SA

Hi, I'm Liz, an Adelaide Hills local. I am passionate about working as a counsellor. I believe in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where people can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences freely. Through a collaborative approach, I work to support people in gaining insight, developing coping skills, promoting resilience and fostering a sense of empowerment and self-belief.

Feeling weighed down by the never-ending stream of responsibilities? Exhausted, drained, and teetering on the edge of burnout? You're not in this alone. But there's hope. Let's journey together to reclaim your energy and reignite your zest for life. I've trodden that same path of burnout, so I understand. The good news? I've discovered how to revive that spark, and I'm here to be your guide. Bringing joy to women like you by helping you refill your cup is my passion.

Hello, I'm Joanna and I own and operate Talking Heads Counselling - an Adelaide Hills counselling service offering sessions in a cosy private cottage, in-school, via tele-health or outside in the fresh air. I aim to provide a safe, comfortable and relaxed space for children, adolescents and young adults (aged 5-25) to work through life's challenges. Enquiries for individuals outside of this age range will be considered on a case by case basis. Sometimes Collin and Phil the friendly dachshunds come to sessions too! If you would like to meet with me, bookings to be made via my website: www.talkingheadscounselling.com.au

If you need to talk with someone who isn’t a friend or family, won’t judge you, can be objective, and won’t push you to talk or try things you’re not ready for? Then you’ve come to the right place! I don’t do therapy to you, but with you! I walk along side you at your pace offering therapeutic support along the way, while breaking down old habits and thoughts that maybe holding you back. I’m a university qualified and experienced counsellor who can support you to make positive changes towards the life you want and the person you want to be.

My greatest passion is in helping others to find peace, fulfilment and meaning. ​My approach is person-centred, non-judgmental and collaborative. I am a trained and qualified Counsellor and Psychotherapist. My therapeutic approach is one which integrates elements of several modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy and Mindfulness.

We all experience struggle at times, it's something we have in common with each other, but we can also feel very alone in our pain and life challenges. Feeling heard, being seen and genuinely understood by a compassionate person is such a healing and valuable experience. My own journey to find helpful therapy and a relatable therapist has been difficult and frustrating at times. When I was younger I found myself turning to the company and companionship of animals to find a safe and comfortable place for healing. Today, my work as a psychotherapist means a lot to me, working together with people in support of health and wellbeing.

Are you unhappy, tired, and under constant stress? Do you find yourself taking on more than you can handle and saying yes when you really mean no? Have you not been feeling like yourself lately? Know it does not have to be this way. It's possible to live a life that feels so good, so fulfilling, a life where you feel confident and in control. Are you ready to learn what's preventing you from living the life you want? It’s time to return to you.

I am passionate about helping and empowering people who are suffering from mental health and disability issues to find hope, relief, ease and wellbeing in their life. I support people to capacity build their own capacity so they are better able to manage the challenges that occur within there own life.

I have worked in the helping professions for nine years helping clients work through depression, anxiety and addiction. With this experience, I bring an authentic and compassionate approach to counselling. I want to enable clients to tell their stories in a safe environment, to work through their issues, to heal and to work alongside them to create a life of depth and meaning.

Do you need help navigating a challenge to live a happier life? Are you experiencing low energy, disrupted sleep, heightened anxiety, ruminating thoughts or chronic pain? These can be some of the signs you’ve fallen into a relentless cycle of fatigue and stress and your life is out of balance. Life’s challenges take many different forms from anxiety to depression, trauma and interpersonal conflict but you do not have to suffer alone.

I understand that high school and university can be a particularly tough time in people's lives, and I want to be there for people as an ear to listen. Not only schooling itself can be difficult, but every aspect of our lives can be - such as family, friends, extra curricular activities, risk taking, substances, and much more. It is easy to get caught up in issues with those that we are close with, so to work with a fresh set of eyes may be useful. I love learning about people's stories and will work from a non-judgemental frame of mind, because there is nothing to be ashamed of in sharing our stories.

Dual qualified as a psychologist and accredited mental health social worker.

Working collaboratively I aim to help you evaluate your needs to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, enabling you to make empowered choices.
