Alcohol Use Counselling in Nairne, SA

Hi! Thanks for checking out my profile. I've been providing therapy for close to 30 years, and I'm still passionate about seeing the power in people to change. My experience is broad, and is the foundation for a calm, grounded approach to supporting you to overcome challenges and experience growth. I value getting to know you, understanding your concerns, and helping you to gain clarity about the life you want. I have a particular interest in supporting neurodivergent girls and women in their journey - whether that is questioning if you are neurodivergent, newly diagnosed, or any challenges you need to overcome.

I am in safe hands, clients tell me. They feel this because they know I really understand their issues. This understanding is informed by many years in social work, in counselling and through lived experience. Most of my clients come via word of mouth from former or current clients. Clients can always expect to be shown respect, never judged & never be told what to do. All people have individual needs, problems and therefore ways in which they are worked through. When clients feel no hope, I hold the hope for them. Life can be more than difficult sometimes and it is important to realise that seeking help is a sign of strength.

I am passionate about helping and empowering people who are suffering from mental health and disability issues to find hope, relief, ease and wellbeing in their life. I support people to capacity build their own capacity so they are better able to manage the challenges that occur within there own life.

I have been a counsellor for the past 20 years and I am passionate about helping people to grow and develop their sense of self. I recently qualified in Family Therapy and Systemic Practice and I see Family Therapy as a game changer in terms of moving individuals and families through problems, quickly. I take a strong position in being authentic, non-judgemental and transparent. The relationships that make up our world are important and are informed by the relationship we have with ourselves. Great mental health is the most precious thing we possess and we need to take time to cherish, nourish and protect it.

Amalgamating my relevant professional and life experiences allows me to maintain therapeutic relationships with clients in a professional manner, particularly with regards to confidentiality. My counselling experience has allowed me the privilege of working with clients of all walks of life, from children to mature age. I have a great understanding of individuals who have experienced emotional and psychological hardships in their lives, my practice provides opportunities for clients to tell their stories without fear of judgement.

I am Mental Health Social Worker accredited with the Australian Association of Social Workers with over 16 years of experience providing therapy and counselling to people experiencing mental health difficulties. I support both adolescents and adults to explore and work through a range of difficulties, for example: anxiety, depression, excessive anger, guilt, psychological trauma, grief and loss and relationship difficulties. Committed to providing a safe, confidential, and contained place to enable people to explore their inner world, my goal is to help people to resolve or better manage their problems and achieve self-acceptance.

Welcome! I feel privileged to be able to offer you an integrative evidence-based approach to counselling, health and wellbeing. I have an extensive background in healthcare and my aim as a counsellor is to help clients regain mental, emotional, social and physical health.

I understand that high school and university can be a particularly tough time in people's lives, and I want to be there for people as an ear to listen. Not only schooling itself can be difficult, but every aspect of our lives can be - such as family, friends, extra curricular activities, risk taking, substances, and much more. It is easy to get caught up in issues with those that we are close with, so to work with a fresh set of eyes may be useful. I love learning about people's stories and will work from a non-judgemental frame of mind, because there is nothing to be ashamed of in sharing our stories.

Guys, are you sick and tired of waking up sick and tired? Sometimes there’s so much going on in our head to know where to begin. This can often lead to anxieties, diminished self-worth or addiction. I know from lived experience how harrowing this can be. Reaching out for help can be daunting and confronting, and talking with friends or family often feels too close to home. Don’t let your thoughts and feelings take a back seat by dismissing and ignoring them. Left unaddressed, this can considerably influence your mental wellbeing by clouding over a sense of hope, a brighter future & the best version of you. So what’s the next step?

We all experience times in our life when things just don’t seem to be going our way or we can’t see a way forward. You may be feeling overwhelmed, unmotivated or experiencing feelings of anxiety or low moods. It could be relationship issues, time for a lifestyle change or that “I just can’t quite put my finger on it” feeling. That’s where I come in. I want to provide you with a safe space to share your story, find clarity and insight, and start moving forward. I am a PACFA Clinically registered Counsellor and I have a passion for people and promoting a healthy mind and body.
