Hi, I’m Catherine Nyika, the Founder & Principal Practitioner at The Inner Shine Clinic & I am not your average counsellor & coach. I specialise in empowering women & teens to overcome anxiety, 'imposter syndrome" and "not enoughness" so that they can learn to shine again. I will help you to see the light inside of you that you forgot was even there & teach you the self-help tools so that you can keep that light turned on. You find yourself here because you are searching for answers. Inner peace and confidence seem out of reach & other things haven't helped. You recognise it's time to start to heal from the inside out. Let's begin!

We all face challenges in life. Whether it be feeling emotionally down, or anxious, or within our close personal relationships or our career. I believe that most people in these situations have a sense that something isn't right for them, but feel stuck on what to do about it. "I'm not totally happy in my relationship, but I love this person and want to make it work", "I'm unhappy at work, but I don't know what steps I can take to change things". People want clarity, my job is to work with them to find it.

Child Counsellors
Child psychologists in Queens Park, NSW provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Queens Park build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
