Are you struggling with stress, anxiety or relational tension or abuse? Maybe you feel as if you’ve lost direction and don’t even know who you are any more? Or you feel like you’ve tried everything to cope and get over it and still feel lost, anxious and lonely? Or worse – traumatised and can’t get out of bed or handle yourself well in public? Maybe you are struggling to make decisions and move forward. Or you want to enrich and simplify your life, and just want to talk it through with someone unbiased?

Catch Counselling and Wellbeing
Counsellor
Verified
I believe that unconscious thoughts or beliefs can influence us to have a complicated and conflicted existence with self and other. With recognising these unconscious thoughts and beliefs we can make decisions, think and behave in ways that create certainty, joy and positive self-worth. By accepting self and other, seeking balance in all aspects of life and recognising you have a choice, you can better manage situations and issues.

The Wellspring Within
Psychologist, PsyBA General
Verified
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.
