Bereavement Counselling in Ballarat Central, VIC

I have extensive experience working with trans, gender diverse and non-binary people. I support those exploring their gender identity, as well as helping with social and medical transition. I have helped many individuals come out to family and friends, and I work with partners and parents of trans and gender diverse individuals. In addition, I also work with those who have suffered a significant loss in their lives, who may be grieving the loss of a partner, child, parent or close relative due to illness, accident or suicide. I strive to provide a safe space for you to explore your feelings and find the support you need.

I use a wholistic frame, inclusive of body, mind and spirit in my work as a therapist. I have found that working somatically can be tremendously revealing of inner gems that lay beneath the level of consciousness. They can provide answers, understandings, and can lead to living a fuller life. The use of your spiritual frames of reference in therapy can also bring meaning and can provide leverage for the changes you are wanting to make. You may feel supported to become more whole, self-actualised, self-understanding and accepting of the person you are.

Clients often want to change their behaviour and improve their lives as well as their relationships. However, fear, trauma and past hurt can cause ambivalence. Counselling can help clients work through the why, how and what of making this change. By using a number of modalities such as Motivational Interviewing, CBT, Person Centred, Strengths Based and Gestalt therapies, clients can find their way out of the dark. 'Beyond the Silence, there is always Hope'.

I am a compassionate, trauma-informed and strength-based psychologist with a background in Mental Health, Functional Recovery, Disabilities and Behaviour Support. I am able to assist with difficulties across a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, grief and loss , life transitions, parenting, emotional regulation, neurodiversity and relationship difficulties. I offer both in home and telehealth appointments Monday to Thursday from 4pm, so no need to take time away from your work, studies or busy schedule.

Have you experienced some form of trauma in your life, either past or present? If so, your body is most likely dysregulated and you could benefit from support to reduce stress and improve self-care. Have you lost direction in your life due to significant life changes, such as grief , relationship ending, or menopause? My aim is to offer a non-judgemental space and to help each client improve wellbeing and reduce stress. In addition to my niche areas I also work with: self-esteem, life transitions & general counselling issues.

Hi there, my name is Marie and I am passionate about helping my clients live more fulfilling lives and experience greater wellbeing. Whether you are experiencing specific life challenges (such as low mood, anxiety or disordered eating), wish to develop deeper self-understanding (for example in relation to your identity or sexuality), or want to experience more fulfilling relationships (friendships, partnerships or family-relations) psychotherapy is a powerful tool that can support your process.

I am passionate about journeying with people at all ages and stages of their lives, to increase their capacity and create change in themselves and to find joy and growth in their lives. I work from a trauma informed viewpoint, that incorporates family, to ensure person-centred, relationship-focussed therapy. I have also undergone additional training in Havening. I am comfortable working with personal spirituality and understand the significance and role of spirituality within lives.

The goal of therapy is to work collaboratively together to grow, heal and move forward to where you want to be in your life.

Hi, I'm Freya. I've been counselling for over 25 years, and 2 years ago started incorporating my animals (horses, dogs, cats) into my therapeutic practice. I work with all ages, and the people I work with are as unique as the issues they want to address. My clients are individuals, couples, and children. I have lived experience of neurodiversity (ASD, ADHD, Dyslexia, HSP) and consequently work with a lot of people who are neurodiverse themselves. My work focusses on understanding why we are the way we are, combined with techniques that foster change and growth, with the end goal of increased well being and resilience.

Something isn’t quite right. It may be that you can’t stop yourself from worrying. Or you are compulsively avoiding things (places, people, certain situations). Perhaps you find yourself flying into a sudden, uncontrollable, panic. It may be that you are feeling down: you can’t shake the sadness, emptiness, or hopelessness in your life. You may be feeling worthless and guilty too. It could be your relationships that aren’t working (partner, friends, family, boss, or colleagues). Perhaps past experiences are haunting you so that you lose your connection to the present and the people in it. Perhaps it's all of the above.
