I'm Vanessa, and I love working with clients to provide support, comfort and empathy. My gentle and friendly approach will help you to feel comfortable straight away, and we will move at a pace that feels comfortable to you. I am particularly passionate about working with clients who are experiencing stress and anxiety to help them heal and learn anxiety management skills. I am also a grief and loss counsellor who can provide a gentle ear and support when you've experienced a loss. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming and supportive of non-traditional relationship structures.
I offer flexible counselling services via video chat and telephone. I also run a weekly clinic every Friday at Qhub in Ballarat for members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I can use a range of evidence-based therapy techniques to help you to work through issues and meet your goals, while creating a gentle and calm atmosphere.
I would be delighted to work with you to meet the challenges that you're facing and move through them. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions that you might have, or to book an appointment to begin discussing what's on your mind.
