Are you experiencing trauma, family or relationship problems, personal issues such as anxiety, depression, loss of a loved one, low self esteem? We provide a supportive environment to enable you to discuss your problems openly, without judgement and to be heard. Learn practical strategies to manage, or resolve your issues, so that you can make positive changes in your life with confidence.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a research and evidence-based approach to help you to identify and explore the ways your thoughts affect your feelings and overall wellbeing. Chris is a trauma informed counsellor, trained in EMDR for trauma and CBT-E for Eating disorders. Chris also incorporates relaxation strategies and mindfulness into her practice.
I have a friendly and compassionate style to help you to feel comfortable opening up about your problems without judgement. I follow the Code of Ethics for the Australian Counselling Association. You can choose video (Teams) or by telephone. Face to face sessions in Ocean Grove.
