Counselling in Bentleigh East, VIC

Hi there! I'm Steph - a Provisional Psychologist who works with neurodivergent adults, parents, young people, and teens. I'm all about finding ways to work with your brain instead of against it so that you can achieve the things that are important to you. Discovering that you are ADHD or Autistic can bring feelings of relief and happiness. It can also bring feelings of grief, loss and regret. Grief for the lost time and the lost opportunities. And sometimes regret - what could you have done or who could you have been - if you had received support for your difficulties.

I believe that loving one’s self is a prerequisite to loving others: our relationships with others are all mirrors of our relationship with ourselves. As a counsellor with over 15 years of experience, I understand that life can be challenging sometimes, and we can lose our way in it. I treat my clients with warmth, empathy, and unconditional support, giving them the space and confidence that they need to walk through the pains of their growth and once again find their love for their true self.

My clients often are looking for ways to better handle the challenges of daily living. They may be feeling these challenges are insurmountable or that they are fundamentally inadequate to be able to cope. They might not feel that they have a good understanding of who they truly are, what it is they want out of life, or what they have to offer others. They might also struggle to draw on the resources around them and make the most of their personal relationships. They may struggle to find the voice inside to reassure them that, as hard as things can feel, they can change.
