Attachment-based Counselling in North Adelaide, SA

I am passionate about providing a safe, respectful and therapeutic experience for my clients who are experiencing emotional distress, struggling with their mental health and struggling within their relationships. I offer a holistic approach to evidence based practices helping clients re-pattern their nervous systems to support emotional regulation and connection with self and significant others. The foundations of my work is highly relational and holistically based. I utilise many approaches to help address the impacts of stress and trauma on the brain, nervous system and on interpersonal relationships.

As an Accredited Social Worker with over 25 years experiences, I am aware of how difficult it can be to take the first step in reaching out for support. I am aware that for many clients, this may also be the very first time they have spoken with a counsellor, and may be ready to disclose an extremely distressing and/or traumatic experience. When we take into account our very human differences, human strengths, our upbringings, our cultural and religious experiences, I have the responsibility to demonstrate to you trust, safety, dignity, kindness, and uphold the ethics and standards of my profession, Social Work.

Welcome to Attuned Psychology, North Adelaide & Glenelg. We are an outcome-focussed established practice offering psychological and therapeutic services for people of all ages and backgrounds, with appointments available during business and after hours both face-to-face and via Telehealth. Our dedicated team of psychologists will provide you with an objective sounding board to help you find solutions, increase wellbeing, improve relationships, and achieve the life you truly want. Attuned to your needs, our skilled psychologists and therapists will blend a range of proven therapeutic approaches to best suit your individual goals.

I'm looking to connect with individuals who are on a journey of introspection, exploration and unpacking thoughts, feelings and experiences. We will be working towards long-lasting change where the root cause of an issue can be addressed and processed. Each treatment is uniquely tailored to your specific needs and thus the therapeutic style is non-manualised and not necessarily focused on reaching outcomes/end results, but rather on the process of therapy and its unfolding nature.

Are you recovering from trauma, oppression or psychological abuse? Do you need support to heal and take charge of your life, creating wellbeing and freedom. If you are living with distress, anxiety, co-dependency or something is in the way of you enjoying and living your life, reach out and we can work together to support you to regain connection with yourself to start/continue towards creating the life you want. I also work with parents and the impacts of trauma on their experience as a parent and healing parent child dynamics. Trans and gender diverse people are welcome along with all people from LGBTIQA+ communities.

Hello, I'm Alexandra Frost (prefer Alex), Director and Principal Clinical Psychologist at Attuned Psychology, an established group practice with locations in North Adelaide and Glenelg. I am experienced in working with adolescents, adults, couples, performers and the LGBTQIA+ community both face to face and online. I look forward to working with you in a way that respects your uniqueness, wisdom, vulnerability, courage, and creativity. In 26 + years, I’ve developed an approach that helps me deepen my knowledge and understanding of what shapes your mental health and relationships, always bringing authenticity and presence.

Hi, my name is Rachel and I support women experiencing the devastation that is partner betrayal. Perhaps your partner has been cheating or keeping secret sexual behaviours from you? This can include things such as porn addiction, repeated emotional and/or sexual infidelities. This type of personal betrayal is heart-breaking and life shattering. Following discovery of betrayals, you may experience some of the following: overwhelming emotions, intrusive thoughts, hypervigilance, preoccupation, difficulty functioning day to day, changes to your sense of self, sleep issues, physical symptoms, isolation and many more.

If you're considering therapy you're likely entertaining the possibility of change! Many clients have a sense of feeling 'stuck' - that what they've been doing isn't sustainable - old coping/survival strategies aren't workable and use up valuable energy, e.g.. avoidance of/distracting from/suppressing/whiteknuckling/ruminating on: thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations, urges, images, memories. These maintain negative cycles, keep our emotional brain vigilant to 'threat' and our nervous system mobilised in a stress response. What if we could imagine a future we'd like to participate in, regardless of what's showing up in the present?

I work with clients from all walks of life who have a burning desire for change. They want to release the past and step into the life which is no longer limited by the unhealed in their past. They might walk through my door with a range of issues ranging from anxiety , self esteem, relationship issues etc but their needs and wants are not much different. They are seeking a life which is of their choosing. They want a life which is of their making. They want a sense of control and connectedness with self and others. My clients are tired of repeating the same behavioural patterns and expecting a different outcome.

If you are emotionally overwhelmed and unsure about future directions, talking to a trained professional can help. Processing thoughts and emotions can help you clarify your goals and plan your next steps. Traumatic experiences that have not been processed may also impact your ability to find deeper contentment and purpose. Triggers in the present that spark PTSD-like responses can impede your ability to move forward. I can provide a safe place for you to explore challenges, old and new. We can go at a pace that is comfortable for you and chart your path to more peace and clarity.

Even though our journeys in life and struggles differ from one another, my life experience and training helps me to come from a place of empathy, care, and understanding that life is challenging and that we are all striving for a sense of wholeness and wellbeing. My practice uses a person-centered and strengths-based approach and it would be my pleasure to walk beside you and support you as you navigate through life’s difficult times and complexities.

I have over 20 years of experience working with people experiencing a range of difficulties. My experience has taught me that often we develop unconscious ways of making sense of the world, our relationships and how we see ourselves from a very early age. These thoughts and feelings are often not accessible to our conscious mind and making sense of why we struggle so much can be really difficult. You may have tried a range of things in the past that have not really helped or you may not even know where to start.

'We don't get wounded alone and we don't heal alone' (Carl Jung). Psychological wounds regardless of how old there are can be very difficult to heal. They can manifest themselves as chronic pain, fatigue, anxiety and various mental health issues. They can make you feel stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or lost. If you are reading this, you are most likely looking for answers and you would like to make some changes. This is an important step in your journey and I would like to support you through it.

I feel passionately about providing a safe space for my clients to talk, feel, explore, develop skills and ultimately to heal. Many of us are carrying painful memories, anxious thoughts, difficult emotions and unhelpful patterns of behaviour. I believe when you find someone you can connect with, you can begin the process of healing and developing not only better relationships with others but with yourself. If you're looking for someone to accompany you on that journey, I would consider it an honour to be your companion.
