Female Counselling in Central Highlands and Goldfields, VIC

My counselling practice specialises in trauma informed and evidence based therapeutic interventions. I believe in the importance of providing a safe space for persons to build trust and rapport, in order to then discuss and establish their goals for therapy and to work together to achieve these goals, from a client centred approach. Respect, honesty , trust , empathy and compassion are core values at the heart of my practice.

Do you struggle with relationships, with yourself and others? Maybe you find it hard to connect with your emotions or even your body? We value our clients as the expert of their lives, and acknowledge that reaching our for extra support isn't always easy. But our team have spent their entire careers dedicated to ongoing learning to ensure the people who enter our space feel seen, heard and believed. We specialise in supporting those who have experienced difficult childhoods or been exposed to abuse or neglect (physical or emotional).

I am particularly passionate about working with adults to navigate; grief and loss, relationships, fear, shame, anger, overwhelm, anxiety, depression, major life transitions, developing self-love, self-worth and self-compassion.

Over the course of the last 5 years, I have earnestly honed my clinical expertise by offering assistance to people from diverse backgrounds, spanning ages 4 to 86.

I am driven by the desire to make a lasting impact by providing unparalleled compassion and exceptional care.
