Online Counselling for Boronia

For any individual attending counselling, it can be quite a vulnerable and challenging experience. My aim is to ensure that you feel comfortable and safe from the beginning and to demonstrate that in sessions there is no judgement nor negativity, but rather a collaborative approach towards the goals you want. This may include improving mood, self-esteem, motivation, coping styles or gaining understanding and awareness of your own mental health. Counselling for me is about unconditional support to ensure we are actively discussing aspects of your life that may be impacting you, with therapy tailored specifically to you.

If you're struggling with shame, anxiety, or existential concerns related to your religious background (whether you have left your religious community or are still happily a part of it), I'm here to help you move forward. Religion plays a huge role shaping our understanding of ourselves, our values, and the world around us. It can be a daunting but incredibly rewarding journey to open these ideas up for examination. My goal is to provide you with a safe, supportive space to explore, deconstruct, and create new understandings that feel true to who you are.

I work via Zoom to help women who have experienced abuse, grief and loss to release the trauma they hold in their minds and bodies so they can live their best lives. I work in a gentle and safe way at your own pace so that you take back your power and self-trust. I use both talk therapy (CBT) and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). Trauma is not in the event itself but how a person experiences that event. What may appear a minor incident to one person can trigger a major emotional response for another. People can recover from trauma when their physical, cognitive and emotional selves become integrated again.
