In Person Counselling in Mile End, SA

I began ProMind Psychology because I couldn’t find a psychology practice that really sparked my sense of joy – lit my mojo! So I created my own! I wanted a space where people can learn about themselves and feel relaxed and accepted from the moment they enter. I've created a team of Psychology professionals who love being at ProMind Psychology, so I feel 100% sure you will too. Whatever challenges you’re facing, we want you to feel cared for and understood. We are here to help you connect with your inner wisdom and find a way forward.

Even though our journeys in life and struggles differ from one another, my life experience and training helps me to come from a place of empathy, care, and understanding that life is challenging and that we are all striving for a sense of wholeness and wellbeing. My practice uses a person-centered and strengths-based approach and it would be my pleasure to walk beside you and support you as you navigate through life’s difficult times and complexities.

Sometimes there are things that hold us back from being able to live our best lives. Young people and adults experience a range of concerns in areas including anxiety, depression, trauma, living with chronic illness, grief and loss and working through significant life transitions. People want to be listened to and heard, so they do not feel alone in dealing with these significant life experiences.

I strive to hold a safe, warm, and all-inclusive space for clients (LGBTQIA+ friendly, open to all genders). I am passionate about empowering clients to learn more about themselves and to transmute challenges, encouraging clients to achieve gentle and sustainable shifts in both their wellbeing and relationships. I approach therapy from a holistic framework with elements from a range of evidence-based therapies utilised. Sessions are collaborative and uniquely tailored to each individual.

I specialise in supporting people experiencing anxiety, stress, panic attacks, agoraphobia, burnout, low mood, intrusive thoughts & trauma-related concerns. I'll support you to overcome these challenges through education, mapping your nervous system, building insight into early warning signs & triggers, developing emotional regulation tools, increasing cognitive flexibility & graded exposure. I combine your personal expertise—your knowledge of your lived experiences, strengths & tools—with my professional expertise in mental health & evidence-based interventions, including Polyvagal Theory, CBT, ACT, mindfulness & breath work.

I work with clients from all walks of life who have a burning desire for change. They want to release the past and step into the life which is no longer limited by the unhealed in their past. They might walk through my door with a range of issues ranging from anxiety , self esteem, relationship issues etc but their needs and wants are not much different. They are seeking a life which is of their choosing. They want a life which is of their making. They want a sense of control and connectedness with self and others. My clients are tired of repeating the same behavioural patterns and expecting a different outcome.

Held Counselling Space is a safe space to explore the depths and nuance of personhood, whether that is navigating grief, anxiety, people-pleasing, feeling lost or disconnected, relational challenges, stress, trauma or low self-worth. Together, we are curious, we are kind to whatever surfaces. With openness and discernment, we welcome wisdom and befriend our multi-faceted selves. A soft place to hold the light and the dark with care and an invitation to commune with your deep Self.

At Metta Counselling we strive to support your journey by gradually increasing understanding and awareness and calling on your own wisdom, knowledge, and skills to lean into and navigate life's hurdles.

My passion as a Psychologist is helping individuals with various concerns, such as Eating Disorders, Anxiety, Depression, anger management, self-esteem/confidence issues, or individuals who are going through large life changes, be able to overcome their difficulties and achieve their therapeutic outcomes. I support people aged 8 years to 60 years of age. I have a warm and empathetic approach, with a focus on creating an environment where a person can learn about themselves, develop their skills to manage their mental health and wellbeing, and be empowered to create change in their lives.

If you're considering therapy you're likely entertaining the possibility of change! Many clients have a sense of feeling 'stuck' - that what they've been doing isn't sustainable - old coping/survival strategies aren't workable and use up valuable energy, e.g.. avoidance of/distracting from/suppressing/whiteknuckling/ruminating on: thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations, urges, images, memories. These maintain negative cycles, keep our emotional brain vigilant to 'threat' and our nervous system mobilised in a stress response. What if we could imagine a future we'd like to participate in, regardless of what's showing up in the present?

I am a trauma-focussed psychologist with advanced training in Eye-Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR); I am accredited by the EMDR Association of Australia as both a practitioner and supervisor for EMDR therapy, and thus you can have confidence in the quality of service you get from me! I am a therapist with deep care, warmth, respect and hope for everyone I work with. I am passionate about going beyond helping you simply cope with your difficulties, and rather, want to assist you in addressing the underlying issues and traumas that contribute. My ultimate goal is to help you genuinely heal, recover, grow and thrive.

'We don't get wounded alone and we don't heal alone' (Carl Jung). Psychological wounds regardless of how old there are can be very difficult to heal. They can manifest themselves as chronic pain, fatigue, anxiety and various mental health issues. They can make you feel stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or lost. If you are reading this, you are most likely looking for answers and you would like to make some changes. This is an important step in your journey and I would like to support you through it.

If you are struggling with the pain of loss from the death of a loved one or another major loss, then you are likely to be feeling overwhelmed, isolated and anxious. Grief is a natural process we all encounter, but it isn't necessary to do it all alone. Struggling with daily life, having to continue to manage family, and work while feeling stressed and unable to cope with everything that has been happening over the last few years as well, just adds to all the grieving. The good news is that you are not alone. There are options for you to find your own pathway to self-healing through pain to peace
