Counselling in Fremantle, WA

Hi, I'm Zenobia. Thanks for taking the time to read my profile. I hope I can be of assistance. I use a holistic approach where we look at thoughts, feelings, behaviours, and self (mind, heart, body and soul) within the biological, familial, cultural, social, and political contexts in which we are born and live. I am interested in more than just easing your symptoms. Therapy will raise your self awareness and bring into consciousness the unconscious wishes and fears which drive behaviour and underlie psychological distress. By integrating these forces, we realise the true self and can begin to live authentically.

Are you going through some major transition in life and looking for compassionate care to navigate through? Do you feel lost and unclear about what you want from life? Are you finding your relationships strained or struggle to communicate effectively with your loved ones? Is your past trauma impacting your present life? If this is you, take a first step towards a meaningful change and please feel free to reach out to me. I have been working in mental health field for more than two decades, with a culturally competent approach, supporting clients from a diverse background. It would be an absolute honor for me to work with you.

Welcome and congratulations, you have taken the first step towards a better mental well-being. It is not easy to choose the right counsellor, with whom you are comfortable to share your life's significant events, I acknowledge. I am Amber, a registered counsellor with the Australian Counsellor's Association. I believe in respect, positive regard and genuine care for my clients privacy and confidentiality in Counselling. My ARHG provider number is: AC20476T

Immense pressure from work has you feeling drained and unsure about where to go from here. The constant demand for you to make decisions, manage personnel, and navigate complex challenges is taking a toll on your health and relationships. You’re trying to maintain your work-life balance, but work stress continues seeping into your home life. You might be questioning your abilities, purpose, and decisions. You’re dedicated to your career but struggling to “keep it all together” and think you might be burnt out. You want a confidential space to voice your fears and deal with the stress and anxiety that has started consuming you.

I have a strong interest in cultivating culturally responsive and accessible practices in my work and in the wider mental health industry. I focus on cultivating strong therapeutic relationships with clients from different age groups, cultural and neurodivergent backgrounds through using collaborative intersectional frameworks and maintaining authenticity, empathy, and curiosity in the counselling space with a focus on CBT, ACT, Schema Therapy and more, using multiple modalities as and when needed by my clients. If this holistic approach aligns with you, please reach out and we can address any hesitations or questions you may have.

No one is perfect and every person comes to face adversity. Therapy is an opportunity to sit safely with discomfort; to stop and reflect, allowing you to regain the energy required to transcend the limits of your own mind. Often times it can be difficult navigating life on your own. Perhaps you’re experiencing life transitions such as a recent diagnosis, a break-up, grief/loss, and you’re in need of guidance and perspective. I have a specific interest in working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, perfectionism, OCD-like symptoms, OCD and OCPD.
