Lesbian Counselling in Eltham, VIC
Do you wonder whether your goals and aspirations have been influenced by society? Perhaps if you were truly living for YOU, your goals would look quite different. Anxiety can dominate our lives until we start uncovering what we truly want out of life. Radically accepting yourself - and understanding your true desires and values - can set you on a more meaningful and fulfilling path. Looking at our issues in a Holistic way allows us to understand ourselves better, which fosters self-compassion.

If you have had trouble in the past being put into boxes that don’t define you, or are wanting a more accepting and flexible therapeutic approach outside of CBT, then I might be the person for you. I want to support people in their journey to discover their authentic selves, and give some mental health tips and tricks along the way.

I work with all ages. I know that counselling can support individuals to better understand themselves, to identify what is and is not working for them, and to make positive changes to increase happiness and wellbeing. I have worked with clients struggling with emotional expression, anxiety, depression, OCD, gender and sexuality, neurodivergence, trauma and children with behaviour and anxiety struggles. Each individual is the expert in their own lives and has within them the capacity for growth and healing, but I know that sometimes it can be helpful to have someone walking alongside, supporting the development of insights.
