Female Counselling in Winchelsea, VIC

Hi, I'm Sandy Revell. At Comfort Couch our aim is to create an inviting space where you feel at ease to work on the issues that are important to you. We hope to help you heal from the wounds of your past through our holistic approaches addressing your mind, body and soul. By addressing these issues you will be free to live the life that you were intended. At Comfort Couch, we focus on the Whole Person.

I love working with people who are ready to dive deep. I find the best work happens when people are ready to reflect and take some risks, opening themselves to new experiences and possibilities. People are ready to try new approaches to old problems in a non clinical environment. They want to feel freer to be themselves, gain clarity and have closer more satisfying relationships with loved ones. Often I work with students of psychology/counselling/play therapy/art therapy who are interested in doing their own wok before becoming therapists. I also work a lot with couples and individuals in life transitions, especially parenthood.

As a Clinical Psychologist, I enjoy working with lots of different types of clients. I have a special interest in ADHD, emotional regulation, interpersonal difficulties, Christian Ministry, anxiety, stress, trauma, and life transitions. I enjoy working with individuals to help them move forwards and towards what matters to them with more confidence and flexibility. With a background in education and chaplaincy, I am passionate about helping men and women to flourish, bringing evidence-based wisdom, insight, and a down-to-earth, empathic style.

As a trauma-informed psychologist, I work with individuals who have experienced childhood trauma and are dealing with body image issues or eating disorders. These clients often face a range of emotional challenges, including a fractured self-image, difficulty with food, and low self-esteem.

Please note I have opened a new clinic day (Thursdays) so I have immediate availability. Hi! I am Elise and I have been practicing as a psychologist for over 13 years. I understand that feeling connected with a mental health professional is so important to help make changes and I love creating an environment that supports this. I will go with you at your pace, and help guide you to change patterns or areas you feel stuck. I like to use EMDR so we can understand and challenge patterns much quicker than through talking alone. I will be right there with you every step of the way!

Hi, I'm Vicki. I am a qualified Art Psychotherapist in England and Australia. I am passionate about art therapy and specialise in trauma informed art psychotherapy. This involves helping and educating clients on how to regulate their nervous system with art making, in a safe therapeutic relationship. This is particularly effective for clients with ptsd and anxiety disorders (select mutism, ocd). Client's goals are often to learn new ways of regulating their emotions and reduce anxiety and build coping skills. We can do this with art therapy, so they can be empowered to live the life they desire, with freedom from the past.

Clients facing anxiety, relationship/dating hurdles, trauma, nervous system dysregulation, low mood or striving to find a deeper sense of self will find relief in our sessions. They may struggle with relationships, anxiety, and self-doubt, seeking validation and understanding of who they are beyond their limiting core beliefs. They aim to cope with anxiety, heal past traumas, improve communication, and foster healthier connections. Ultimately, they strive for security, fulfillment, and peace within themselves and their relationships.

As a dedicated provisional psychologist, I often find myself envisioning my ideal client—a person who is bravely navigating the complex landscape of their own mind and emotions. This individual may be struggling with a range of issues, from anxiety and depression to stress-related challenges. Their needs are clear: they seek a safe and empathetic space to explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and they long for a path towards healing and personal growth. My ideal client's ultimate goal is to find inner peace, develop resilience, and rediscover the joy in life.

My interests are varied and this includes the age of clients that I see which ranges from 14 years through to adults. I have a passion for working with anxiety related conditions including general anxiety, adjustment, change of life difficulties, stress, and associated difficulties such as perfectionism. Through my work with young people I developed an interest in school related issues which led me to complete training in the Cool Kid Anxiety Program. I now offer the program which aims to support young people and their supports to learn ways to address their mental health struggles.

I aspire to be a warm, engaging and non-judgmental clinical psychologist who is passionate about improving the well-being and growth of my clients. I practice a holistic and empowering approach in therapy to help clients better cope with challenging life situations and reach their potential. I have worked as a clinical psychologist for 13 years, primarily in private clinics. Before becoming a clinical psychologist, I spent several years abroad as a social worker and teaching at universities.
