Many people in the current era are looking for creative alternatives to standard therapy options. Whether it be because of public health concerns, having caring responsibilities, being unable to find a suitable therapist in a particular geographic location or simply preferring the convenience that online counselling affords, telehealth may be an appropriate option. I offer confidential online or face-to-face psychology consultations and particularly resonate with those who have experienced anxiety, stress, trauma and burnout, not merely as an aloof observer, but rather as a fellow traveller who has walked that well worn path.

Our focus is on women. Peri and Post Natal Depression, Menopause, family stress and anxiety. Challenging life stages and events such as retirement, chronic illness, grief and loss. Relationship and family challenges through all life stages. Ageing family members with issues such as dementia, loss of independence and frailty. Stress, burn-out, sleep issues, relaxation training, work life balance issues. Want to move forward from that feeling of being ' stuck' ?

Your life, and your feelings matter. I can give you a safe, confidential space to be heard, accepted, and understood. You get to tell your story and talk about your struggles at your own pace, and together we can work towards greater clarity and resolutions. In our sessions I draw partly on my own lived experience. I have insight into trauma, workplace stress, high-functioning autism and supporting a family member with dementia. I also have 25 years experience working with children and their families. These assets give me empathy and a deep understanding of a wide range of others' personal experiences.

Has your life changed all of a sudden due to a bereavement or the end of a relationship? Are you feeling confused, alone and overwhelmed by the emotions you are experiencing? Grief and loss can leave us struggling to find relief from the sadness ,anger ,guilt and the many other emotions we may be feeling as well as leaving us paralysed at the thought of how we will find a way to move forward to a place where we can resume living our lives in the absence of our loved one. All of us will feel the effects of grief at some time in our lives but the way we experience it is unique and deeply personal.

From Nerida Saunders, Director: As a senior psychologist and approved mentor for neurofeedback practitioners, I have worked with children, teenagers, adults and families in areas such as ADHD, Autism, Behaviour Issues, Anxiety, Depression, Learning Difficulties, Memory Loss, PTSD, and other conditions. One of my greatest frustrations in my early career was the limited resources available to actually help people with difficulties. That was until I discovered neuroscience and brain training. I have seen remarkable improvements in people presenting significantly disabling conditions.

My therapeutic approach is warm, but direct. I believe that psychology’s primary role is to resolve upsetting symptoms and help people live life as fully as possible within their circumstances. Therapy with me often involves a combination of hard conversations, laughs, and setting goals and targets to improve life.

Hello I’m Donna Neck and welcome to Life Counselling Solutions. As we all know everyday life certainly has its challenges and stressors these days. Whether you are going through a relationship breakdown or wish to enhance your current relationship to regain connection. Or you may be feeling depressed and anxious, or you may be grieving the recent loss of a loved one . Or you may have recently separated and are grieving an infidelity. Or you may feel you have lost direction in life, and need assistance with regaining meaning and purpose in your life. I would love to assist you.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression or other mental health problem. Do you need someone to listen when others can’t. If you feel alone and need someone to be with you who has the ability to understand and help you understand - give me a call. Do you want help to repair your relationships with others - family, friends, workplace, children. Are you able to accept some responsibility for your own thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Would you like to understand why you feel the way you do and respond to others the way you do. Are you prepared to work with me on this in order to make the changes you want. There is hope!

My clients encompass a diverse group. They often struggle with substance and behavioural addictions, trauma, attachment issues and co-dependency. They may be facing the challenges of aging or are a part of the farming community. Their common needs include navigating life transitions, reducing harmful habits, fostering healthy relationships and boundaries, boosting self-esteem and finding relational and social support. Ultimately, they desire to move from mere survival to seeking a fulfilling and balanced life.

Well done on taking a very important step towards realising you don’t need to do this alone. Life is a journey of many ups and downs and the reality we will all be faced with at some point with big challenges along the way. In a world where we are often inundated with information, its often hard to know where to start. Navigating these challenges can be so much smoother if you have someone that isn’t immersed in your story, to assist in guiding your along the way. Kind of like a wingman. That’s where I can assist. It is important to find the right counsellor or therapist. Someone who ‘gets you’.

I am a highly experienced mature clinician and my goal is to offer readily available therapy in a private and time effective manner to those who are struggling with current life stressors or a chronic mental health condition. I can also offer clinical supervision to psychologists that are either just commencing their career or wanting to broaden their therapeutic skills. I practice Emotion Focused Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Schema Therapy and Trauma Focused Therapy.

Elder Matters is a Psychology practice dedicated to the care and support for individuals and families experiencing the challenges of ageing, including: loneliness and isolation; loss, grief and/or bereavements; health and capacity diagnoses; living with memory loss; experiencing past trauma; transition to aged care. These challenges can impact on independence, family relationships, quality of life, support networks, self-confidence, mental health and general wellbeing. Families/loved ones can also be affected, and at times overwhelmed, by the combination of loss and grief, carer fatigue/exhaustion and complex care systems.

Being able to talk about what's going on in your life in a safe and non-judgemental space can be a powerful catalyst for change. Counselling is based on your needs with interventions grounded in a holistic understanding of you and your life. It aims to facilitate improved self-knowledge and understanding of issues you may be experiencing, which enhances steps towards improved mental health and emotional well being. If agreed upon I am able to work with you in helping to understand the association between past experiences and current behaviour. Early influences can shape us and our ability to exert control over present functioning.

We are innately equipped for both struggle and connection, essential for enhancing our life experiences in areas like relationships, work, parenting, and beyond. Recognising the impact of adversity, it's important to understand how it shapes our emotional experiences and reactions. Adversity manifests in various ways, influencing our ability to express and process emotions across the spectrum - from joy and happiness to sadness and fear. Our team provides a supportive space that fosters a safe, warm, and empathetic environment where you can openly explore and discuss your personal experiences, through trauma-informed perspectives.

Engage Psychology has clinicians with experience from a range of areas. Our clinicians can help with everything from therapy, to assessment, to positive behaviour support. We are dedicated to offering the highest level of client care.

Our emotions play a key role in our mental health. They can make us feel happy, sad, frustrated, depressed, angry, fear or in calm. But when they are affected, the emotions can affect our thinking, behaviour or physical health through symptoms such as insomnia, tiredness, overthinking, lack of energy and many others. So, the goal is to be able to successfully manage the most difficult situation in our life to have a better relationship with ourselves and our loved ones. If we have mental health we will be able to face any situation no matter how difficult it may be. Look for a mental health support is the best decision!
