Counselling in Hobart, TAS

My approach as a psychotherapist is holistic, non-judgemental, trauma informed & deeply relational. I have worked in various roles including mental health counselling, outdoor education teaching, adventure therapy, wilderness rites of passage, & group facilitation for over a decade, supporting adults, young people & families. I bring these diverse experiences into my therapeutic practice to offer a specialised approach to this transformational work.

eunoia was developed out of a deep desire to recapture connection, beauty and meaning in the everyday. Many people (adults, adolescents and children alike), can appear to be trapped in unfulfillment; whether it's by circumstances, limited thinking or unmanageable emotions. Bridget has worked across the community and social services for over 25 years.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed or just cannot make sense of things. Everyone can have therapy at anytime in life. Talking to someone who listens, remembers your history, travels with you on your journey can be rewarding and help with anxiety, depression and feelings of being alone. I can help you make sense of your life, meaning and troubling thoughts. I am also an experienced couples therapist having supported couples on their journeys from courting to commitment. I help people make sense of where they have come to, going to and how they are going to get there even when the future is uncertain.

Offering counselling for children, teens, individuals & families, '& Pause Counselling & Therapy' aims to create a space where you can push pause on the demands of study or work, the expectations of friends & family, or the ache and weight of a long carried load, & be listened to, heard, and valued as an individual. Where you can be still and refill emotionally, mentally, physically, & spiritually, giving you space to breathe; time to rest, reflect and reassess. Time to step back, think, let things go, & recalibrate in order to for you to thrive, not just ‘survive’. Gaining greater insight and understanding; a fresh new perspective.

If you're experiencing anything that has reached you at a deeper level in life, whether it be a visitation from a deceased loved one, a vision of the future, a soul connection, a near-death experience, feeling like you're not on the right path, strange energetic experiences, a feeling there's something you need to do or achieve in this life or anything you would struggle to tell others about, I might be the right practitioner for you.

Bachelor in Psychology; Graduate in Psychology; Post-Graduation in Art Therapy; Post-Graduation in Psychological Practice in Institutions. I undertook my psychological training in Brazil and have more than 15 years of experience in the provision of mental health care and psychological services. I am now a registered Australian Psychologist. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families, dealing with a range of complex emotional disorders, illnesses and life challenges.

My wealth of lived experiences including gender transition inform my collaborative client centred counselling approach. Whilst presenting issues may include depression, anxiety, identity incongruence, dysphoria, trauma, interpersonal challenges, addiction, loneliness, and more, I seek to work with the underlying causes as I believe that through addressing the root causes of the presenting symptoms that psychological wellbeing can be achieved without judgement or further pathologisation.
