Female Counselling in Winthrop, WA

Life is busy. Relationships, families, ageing parents, friendships, menopause, ill health, ageing, loss, too much responsibilty, workplace relations and career crises can leave us overhwhelmed, drained and down. No one is educated or raised to effortlessly adapt and respond to it all. Everyone and everywhere has an opinion on what we should do, what we need, how we should respond. How to navigate what we have not encountered before and gain equanimity in the process? Slowing down in a therapeutic space, being heard, seeing mental habits, utilising insights and realizations are built in features of the human inner compass.

I work with highly sensitive people who struggle with intense emotions and their aftermath. Sometimes they may feel like they are feeling everything, all at once, at other times nothing at all. They may have experienced a big trauma, or lots of little ones. My clients come to learn how to navigate the emotional highs and lows, be a better friend and partner (and find better friends and partners) and overcome their difficulties to build a life that is meaningful and rich to them. I work with adolescents and their families and adults of all ages. I also work with carers (family and friends) of people with mental health challenges.

My clients often comment that my sessions have provided them an opportunity to reflect on themselves and how they interact in their relationships which helps them understand their own behaviours better, thus finding ways forward - either as an individual or as a couple and family.
